Norwich teachers to rally at Perry Browne

NORWICH – “Norwich teachers deserve a fair contract,” proclaims a press release issued by the New York State United Teachers, a union representing public school employees in New York.
Issued on behalf of the Norwich Educators Association, an affiliate of NYSUT, the statement announced a unity rally will be held at 3:45 p.m. today in the Perry Browne Elementary School Gymnasium.
NYSUT Secretary Treasurer Lee Cutler and the NEO’s Bruce Race are scheduled to speak during the unity rally, to which union members, friends and family are invited to attend.
“We are trying to bring people together as a message of strength and solidarity,” said NYSUT representative Michael Lynch. “The group is going to stick together until they get a fair deal.” According to Lynch, Norwich teachers have been working for thirteen months under an expired contract.
The next step in negotiating a new contract will begin on Sept. 23 when representatives from both the Norwich City School District and the local teachers union will sit down with Cliff Dunn, a state approved mediator.
According to Superintendent Gerard O’Sullivan, Dunn also helped mediate discussions between the district and the Norwich Education Support Staff Association. NESSA members will be voting on the results of that negotiation this week.
