SOLIDARITY-UNITED FOR CHANGE LYDIA HOWRILKA DISCUSSES TRANSFERS

Lydia Howrilka is on the Professional Development podcast discussing transfers, her personal DOE journey, the ongoing UFT election, fighting back if under attack from administration, and more. 

Lydia talks about the Seniority and Integration transfers that existed before the giveback filled 2005 contract.

My understanding is there are no vacancies on the Open Market currently.

If United for Change was to win the UFT election, we would make a right to transfer (Seniority, SBO where hiring committee made up if a majority of teachers hires UFT personnel) a major contract demand. It won't cost the city money to give teachers the right to transfer again.

This is not a Seniority transfer if you have to interview with teachers. The teachers are not going to want to hire anyone that pushes down their Seniority in the school.

The City will want something in return for the transfer right. What is UFC wiling to give up. If you believe in openness and transparency you should list what you are willing to give up for the Transfer rights.

Nope...not interested in a "hiring committee" Interviews are hard enough without having to play to a variety of people (admin/teachers).

The spelling of Lydia’s last name is correct in the heading, but incorrect within the post. Please fix.
