The Lynn Teachers Union Local 1037 was granted a Charter from the American Federation of Teachers on April 21, 1949. For over sixty years the Union has proudly represented the teachers, paraprofessionals and therapists in the City of Lynn.
The American Federation of Teachers is a union of professionals that champions fairness; democracy; economic opportunity; and high-quality public education, healthcare and public services for our students, their families and our communities. We are committed to advancing these principles through community engagement, organizing, collective bargaining and political activism, and especially through the work our members do.
