Yep.

Well, again it's not exactly mandatory. You choose to not be a member of the union, so you're covered if you have philosophical issues, but you will pay the same amount as a member and you will receive no benefits. Not a good choice, in my opinion, but a choice none the less.

Yep. This is not just the realm of teachers, but also included in any "closed shop". Basically, if you've governed by collective bargaining you must be a member of the union or at least pay fair share.
