Students joining for the current school year will be covered by the liability insurance and all additional member benefits as soon as their membership is processed.
You can join as a multi-year member. This option is more cost effective and guarantees uninterrupted liability coverage. Prepayment is for consecutive membership years. Please enroll only for the number of years you expect to remain eligible for Student membership. When you obtain your license and begin teaching professionally, you become eligible for Active membership. At that time, you will enroll through the school district where you are employed. We cannot refund prepaid dues for later years if you change career plans; nor can we apply prepaid Student dues toward Active membership.

To help achieve this goal, completion of this section is strongly encouraged. Failure to do so, however, will not affect your membership status, rights or benefits in NEA, PSEA, the local or any of their affiliates. Ethnic minority by the U.S. Bureau of Census.
