Hawaii State Teachers Association company history timeline

1971

On January 1, 1971, with the formal incorporation of the Hawaii State Teachers Association, a core group of dedicated visionaries came together to form the frontline in the battle to bring education and teacher issues to the forefront of the State’s public agenda.

The saga of HSTA began in 1971 when teachers were called upon to decide first if they desired organized representation at all and then, which organization they would select to represent them.

1972

Unfortunately, contract talks continued to stall until a strike vote was called on January 31, 1972.

Hawaii’s first teachers strike was called for midnight February 17, 1972.

1973

With continuing and in some ways escalating friction with the DOE, a second strike vote was called in the Spring of 1973.

In 1973, teachers were faced with the prospect of a federal wage freeze that would limit public employee wage increases to 5.5 percent, including increments.

1977

In 1977, they began to challenge one of the silent after-effects of teachers’ long years of powerlessness, a profound lack of leadership and managerial skills among classroom teachers.

1978

In addition to the start up of the Women’s Leadership program, 1978 also saw a massive push by the Association’s Political Action Committee.

In 1978, many of the Association’s strongest efforts shifted into high gear, with exciting results.

1982

One of the first indications that the Association was moving to a new level of sophistication was the groundbreaking 1982 Hawaii Schools That Achieve document.

1988

The strategic planning process was initiated in 1988 to give HSTA the power to harness the energy of reform and make it work for teachers.

The first Strategic Planning document, issued in 1988, defined both the mission statement and the strategic vision of the organization and its members.

1993

The 1993 Salary Compensation Task Force grew out of a one-time “gift” from the legislature that would give the Association an opportunity to completely change the structure of the teacher salary scale.
