Im not sure, but I am pretty sure they would be considered employees of their union, not of the state.

wow that is indeed , interesting, great find ... i am going to have to look into this more

a second thought would be , maybe because they no longer work ? just thought , but ill have a look

S+F

Also , is teaching classified as "state" work ? ,

that is a good point , i wonder if their is anyway view union info , if they did belong to a union

its getting weird by the minute!!!...dont know what to think............all the info check in a way that doesnt add up/

Other than the colleges and universities, and the Technical High School System, I don't see any single public school teacher's name anywhere on the site. And since they all seem to be missing from the site (my guess is because it is all lumped together with the Department of Education) I doubt this is anything significant.

In NJ, teachers are not employees of the Union, if they work at a public school, they are considered State employees.

What about the tweeting they did? The principle, Dawn was reported to be tweeting.
How long did they have their twitter or any other social media accounts?

This thread is kind of reaching folks. As has been said, teachers are not state employees. Nor are they employees of a union. The only people actually employed by a union are the officers and office staff of that union. Teachers are employed by the individual school districts they work in, some districts maintain a list of employees and some don't. Personally I wouldn't be interested in having my private information freely distributed on a web site by my employer. And no, it doesn't matter that they are 'public' employees. Privacy is privacy and if you think you have a right to someones personal information you need to reconsider,

Absolutely correct! but that won't stop people from thinking this is something it isn't.

Because they are paid by the town of Newtown ,not the state.

Oh there is no teacher Union.
