PA Committee Structure

The PA is proud of its active and extensive committee structure. In Fall 1998, Past President Bill Perrotti led a group of union leaders in developing a proposal for reorganizing the Association, based on one fundamental principle: the broader the participation of the membership, the more we could accomplish. As goes the mantra in NYSUT, "If you're doing it alone, you're doing it wrong."

To this end, the union leaders revised the PA Constitution and By-laws to include a broad committee structure, and the subsequent success of that change was addressed in a December 2000 New York Teacher article titled "Mohawk Valley local reinvents itself.
