This group is for teacher who believe they have been unfairly rated unsatisfactory by the NYC Dept. of Education. We would like to meet so that each person will have an opportunity to discuss their situation, discuss possible actions, and determine whether a rating should and can be overturned.

We will have teachers, UFT Chapter Leaders, and legal advice to assist teachers (new or experienced) in overcoming the terrible situation that has been created throughout the NYC School System.

  “I have received an unjust U rating and find the system to appeal unjust. I am unable to find a job until I go to a hearing to fight the decision. In the meantime I am being treated guilty until proven innocent.”
