Legal

Texas Classroom Teachers Association members have direct access to nine experienced staff attorneys for employment-related legal information, assistance and representation. No organization has the experience that TCTA has in representing Texas teachers.

As a member, you can contact the TCTA legal staff toll-free, at no cost beyond your annual dues.

TCTA is focused on classroom teachers and instructional staff only. You never have to worry about being a member of the same organization as your administrator.
