Massachusetts Teachers Association

Perhaps too much is riding on the MCAS test results and it's time to move in a new direction for Massachusetts schoolchildren.

New Bedford's vaccine requirement is reasonable since unions can opt to be tested rather than vaccinated. But the policy should be for all municipal employees.

The Massachusetts Teachers Association wants all eligible students and staff returning to public schools and colleges to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19.

Jeff Riley threatened to 'audit' 16 districts in low-risk COVID-19 zones that have opted not to open schools for in-person learning.

Those on both sides of the issue, from Mayor Jon Mitchell to Alma del Mar Executive Director Will Gardner, have weighed in on today's decision.

Mayor Jon Mitchell said the Mass. Teachers Association is 'wrong' about state law preventing the City from transferring the Kempton School to Alma del Mar.

The MTA says the agreement may violate a state law concerning the transfer of public property and the specific use of the property.

The Youth Climate Strike platform seeks adoption of the Green New Deal, which promotes greater reliance on renewable energy.

The Alma del Mar expansion plan appears flawed.

Absolutely unbelievable. The President of the Massachusetts Teachers Association pushed her agenda on Brian's Beat. Barbara Madeloni and the MTA are holding a rally Saturday on Boston Common. There's common ground between the two of us, albeit for differing reasons...
