All lay teachers in member schools are eligible for union membership, regardless of full-time or part-time status. Teachers' aides and administrative workers are not eligible. Lay teachers who were hired after September 1, 1999 and choose NOT to join the union are required to pay an Agency Fee which is equal in amount to the union dues, as per Article XXVI of the Collective Bargaining Agreement.
