Excessive paperwork steals time from instruction, and it’s frustrating!
The UFT is heading into talks next week with the Department of Education about how to reduce the paperwork burden on members. Send your name, grade level and school along with your story of duplicative and unnecessary paperwork to paperwork@uft.org. We’ll use your story to make recommendations for paperwork elimination, while making sure to protect your confidentiality.
