Episode #14: Opting Out – A Practical Guide
from Anti-NEA Podcast Hosted by Gregory Monte
I have gotten several questions from readers about what happens to their teacher contracts once they opt out of the union. “Will you have to appear before the Board of Education each year and negotiate on your own?” “Will you get paid less because you are one individual negotiating against the Big Bad Board?” These are legitimate questions, because if you look at your last contract, it is an agreement between your Board of Education and your District union. So, if you are no longer a member of that union, are you bound by it? The short answer is yes – you are still bound by that contract. It is all about monopoly or exclusive representation. Listen to the podcast for all of the details.
