Attention members, as you hustle through the obligations of work, family and the holidays, please take some time to recall that a union is only as strong as the people who support it. 

Whitnall, AFT Local 3307, represents teachers in Hales Corners Elementary School, Edgerton Elementary School, Whitnall Middle School and Whitnall High School.

Whitnall K-12 has been working hard to ensure quality in education for over a quarter of a decade, and was founded in October 1974.

Through their union, teachers have a voice in their working conditions which ultimately determines the resources, class sizes and staffing available for the children in this district.

Fort Bend Employee Federation has assembled a list of valuable resources for use by members in class or on the job.  Links are added on a regular basis by the staff and membership.  Come see what's available.

Educational Assistants want a salary schedule that acknowledges their hard work.

The Taos Federation of United School Employees is a local union of AFT New Mexico. Under our Collective Bargaining Agreement, we represent most K-12 employees and bargain better wages, benefits and working conditions.

When it was discovered that the 260 day employees in the Los Alamos School District had been overworked in their contract one to two days a year for seven years, the workers approached management for resolution.  

Management’s first proposal was to give these employees three days additional vacation since the statute of limitations for public employees is a two year period. However, within a seven year period, some of the employees had worked eight extra days. Unsatisfied with the first proposal, our union members organized and went to management to negotiate a better settlement.  

LAFSE, represented by Mary Frances Romero, scheduled a meeting with Superintendent Dr. Jim Anderson and together they created a proposal that was cost-effective to the district and fair to workers.   The final agreement was to give the 260 day employees from two to seven days off depending on longevity and the total days each employee had worked over their 260 day contract. Two of the days off are mandatory over winter break with any additional days credited to their annual leave account.
