I've never known teachers, union or not, to get overtime. It mostly has to do with the fact that they calculate the time away from the school doing work in a way that grossly underestimates, and they use an averaging system that takes into account hours off during the summer for an average.
I'm sure it happens in some places, but it isn't very common from my understanding. My mother was an educator of educators (taught those in college who were training to become teachers) and she spent time as a union teacher in PA, so this is based on what I have learned from her over the years.
