Washington Education Association
Welcome to the Evergreen Education Association
Our members belong to a collection of the most highly-skilled, trained, and dedicated educators that exist anywhere. It is most important to know that we make all of our decisions with the needs of our students in consideration. Our members have been hired to do this work as a direct acknowledgment of their desire to be an advocate for children.
The Evergreen Education Association exclusively represents the interests of this great group of professionals. My name is Bill Beville, and I currently serve as president. I am a teacher.
Together, our voice is strong in advocating for children and ensuring that we are appropriately respected and compensated for the important work we do. We contend that membership is not about what one “gets” as an individual, but rather what we successflly secure for kids and our profession working together as a team. Some of the additional benefits provided to our members:
A multi-million dollar liability insurance benefit, access to discounts on a host of products and services at NEAMB.com, access to a financial planner, free legal consultation and discounted legal services, professional development, a voice and vote in your association, as well as personal advocacy.
Most importantly, you belong to a fellowship of active, engaged, and expert professionals.
The true benefit of being a member of our union is in carrying on the tradition of educators raising their collective voice to demand quality in the education for our children. Smaller class sizes, modern resources, advanced curriculum, less standardized testing, ample compensation, insurance benefits, sick leave, planning time, parental leave, etc. are all advancements that did not just "materialize" in our profession. These exist because collectively we have allied together in the past and continue to work together today to improve the pay, benefits and working conditions of our members, thereby improving the learning conditions of our students. Please contact us for more information.
William H. Beville, President
