Dr. Alycia Morell’s education includes BS in Elementary Education, MS in Special Education, PD in Literacy Instruction, and a Doctorate in Education.

She has been a NYC Educator dedicated to our students and members since 1993. She started her career in District 32 as an Elementary Education teacher and then in 1996 began as a Special Educator in District 25, where she has worked ever since. She is the current Chapter Leader at PS 79, Whitestone, with a ten-year tenure. During this tenure, she has been a Delegate at Large and the District Consult Committee member for eight years.

Dr. Morell’s goal is to ensure the union's focus on the contract, educators, and instructional excellence. She believes the UFT has been the standard for genuinely being a union of professionals, and we need to continue to be the national leaders in workers' rights with educational excellence as the guiding vision.
