That’s because unfortunately, the time she spends as the elected head of the teachers union, counts towards her total service years. It’s like that for most unions. It was for the one I had to belong to.
She needs to be locked up.
Chicago can top that. A teacher’s union rep collected a full teacher’s pension after subbing for one day. Think I’m making stuff up?

Did she yell and wave her arms wildly (gesticulate) when teaching in the classroom also? Please roll her out at election time Democrats.

I wonder how true that is. I live in a very union-friendly state (not New York). In my state both the teacher and the school district pay into the retirement fund.
But when a teacher is on union leave, the union pays the teacher’s salary AND the retirement portion normally paid by the district. The district pays nothing.
I’d be a little surprised if New York was different.
She must have been a real loser of a “teacher”. Probably got hung up on the tranny toddler program and got sidetracked.
Typical of a Facist Marxist.
The joys of communism...
This is how the so-called unions work. The chosen few form their own elite complete with privileges unavailable to the members, and in time begin to work for themselves as just another elite, and so against their own members.
One is seeing this with some unions in Germany now, as the union elite sellout the rank-and-file for their own connections and betterment. One observes that this sort of thing in endemic in PUBLIC sector unions.
Some animals are more equal than others.
She didn’t want to be a teacher...she wanted to be Jimmy Hoffa!
Even is she did teach for 15 years it is still an outrageous sum ($200,000 EVERY YEAR) equivalent to winning a $10 million dollar lottery.
You should only get that amount if you worked for more than 50 years.
She is a thief.
