We are Stronger Together
The reasons the West Virginia Education Association exists are right in front of you, including your students and colleagues throughout your county. We all want the same thing; the positive teaching and learning conditions essential for building and maintaining schools where educators and students thrive, the resources and opportunities students and educators need to succeed. A strong, active membership is the reason WVEA makes public schools great for every child. Our collective voice affords us the strength to do more together than we can by ourselves.

This Member Benefits Guide outlines just a few of the benefits that are exclusive to WVEA members. One of the most popular benefits is WVEA's Access Savings Card. From professional growth and support, to amplifying your voice in public policy debates that affect you and your classroom, to providing perks like advice on college debt reduction, WVEA has your future in mind.
