CENTRAL SQUARE TEACHERS’ ASSOCIATION
P.O. BOX 75
CENTRAL SQUARE, NEW YORK 13036

The Central Square Teachers’ Association (CSTA) is the collective bargaining agent for the
K-12 professional educators in the Central Square Central School District.  The CSTA has approximately 353 active members and 125 retired members.  CSTA’s primary responsibility is to negotiate and uphold the integrity of our collective bargaining agreement as outlined in our contract with the Superintendent of Schools.  CSTA strives to maintain an open and professional relationship with the Central Square Central School district and building administration in order to provide an educational environment that facilitates student achievement and our members’ professional growth. We maintain procedures to address grievances when the terms and conditions outlined in our contract are violated. 

The CSTA is affiliated with the New York State United Teachers (NYSUT), the American Federation of Teachers (AFT), the National Education Association (NEA) and the American Federation of Labor and Congress of Industrial Organizations (AFL-CIO).  The resources of these groups assist the CSTA in serving the needs of our members.  They also help assure that the concerns of CSTA members are heard together with the collective voices of educators across New York at both the state and national level.  The CSTA continually strives to maintain its’ tradition of partnership, innovation and educational excellence when interacting with the school district and community.

The CSTA is lead by a core group of officers and building representatives that make up the CSTA Executive Committee as outlined in the CSTA constitution.  Listed below are the officers and building representatives for the 2010-2011 school year.
