Dick Ianuzzi addresses the crowd In Albany on June 8, GNTA joined thousands of educators, administrators, parents, and students from across New York State to rally for public education. As NYSUT President Dick Ianuzzi said, the day is not "against anyone - today is FOR children. It is a day for re-examining how we look at testing and the achievement gap; poverty and the wealth gap; and equity and fairness."
The One Voice United rally included music and rousing speeches from AFT President Randi Weingarten, education analyst John Nichols, and many others who denounced the state's obsession with standardized testing and APPR. As Ianuzzi said, "We don't have any concerns about accountability if you do it right and it's fair!"
