 The Executive Board of the Great Neck Teachers Association unanimously supports the re-election of all current members of the Great Neck Board of Education.
This Board adheres to all the tenets of fiscal responsibility while maintaining their goal of meeting the needs of all students. While we teachers have not always benefitted financially from the Board’s budgeting, we respect their measured judgment and work with them in good faith as partners because we understand that the long-term educational and financial health of the district is their primary focus and serves the best interests of the entire educational community of Great Neck. This Board is not afraid of change; in fact, they stay ahead of it. The Board enacted a tax cap one year before it became law; approached technology not as a panacea but as one tool for instructional effectiveness; made critical capital improvements to the district’s aging infrastructure before it became dangerous or cost-prohibitive; and unanimously passed a resolution opposing the State’s overreliance on standardized testing. This Board has served the interests of students and taxpayers in equal measure, maintaining an equilibrium that sets it apart from other districts. With one eye on Great Neck’s rich history and the other on charting its promising future, they have done more than react to the current financial and educational crises: they have proactively and successfully led the district through them. No Board is more accessible, more deliberative, or better informed. We strongly recommend the re-election of the members of this Board of Education on May 20. Sincerely, Sheila Scimone, President Great Neck Teachers Association  Here are the results of the April 28, 2014 GNTA elections. Thanks to Linda Gitman and Susan Becker of the Elections Committee for all of their hard work.
2015 NYSUT & 2014 AFT Delegates & Alternates GNTA Jeff Bernstein / Michelle Sorise Maura Carroll / Elaine Brendel Sandi Cooper / Jodi Rauch Jim Daszenski / Debra Silverman Michael Norberto / Linda Gitman Sheila Scimone / Kathleen Andrews Jennifer Snyder / Luci Legotti Retired Educators Chapter Bill Toto / Ruth Ann Bertman  Dick Iannuzzi congratulates Karen Magee In stunning fashion, amid strong anti-incumbent sentiment, NYSUT President Dick Iannuzzi and his fellow officers were defeated by Karen Magee and her "Revive NYSUT" slate. The April 5th election was held at NYSUT's 42nd Annual Representative Assembly in Manhattan, a gathering of over 2300 delegates from across New York State. Magee and her team campaigned on a platform stressing greater member mobilization and fiscal transparency and responsibility within NYSUT. They also promise a more aggressive approach in fighting back against APPR, high stakes testing, and Albany's refusal to adequately fund and support public education. GNTA's eight delegates strongly supported Iannuzzi and his team believing that their experience and accomplishments in these extremely difficult times had earned our continued trust. GNTA President Sheila Scimone said that "Since January, the GNTA delegation has conscientiously examined the positions of both slates of candidates and unanimously supported Iannuzzi's ‘Stronger Together’ team. I'm deeply disappointed to lose the experience, integrity, and grace of Dick Iannuzzi, Maria Neira, Kathleen Donahue, and Lee Cutler. However, it's imperative that we not allow the unity of NYSUT to be compromised even for a second, so GNTA is committed to working collaboratively with our new officers from today forward." GNTA congratulates NYSUT's new leadership: President Karen Magee, Executive Vice President Andrew Pallotta, 1st Vice President Catalina R. Fortino, 2nd Vice President Paul Pecorale, and Secretary-Treasurer Martin Messner. Read more from NYSUT and at the Times Union and the Times Union Blog.
