ISEA Awards & Scholarships

Celebrating your good works and helping students going into the profession is all part of membership in the ISEA.
ISEA’s Awards and Scholarships generate goodwill for your local association, spotlight special accomplishments, recognize outstanding achievements, celebrate member accomplishments and reward deserving students the ability to afford higher education.
We celebrate many of our award winners and scholarship recipients at special events throughout the year. Awards and scholarships are available to ISEA members, family, friends, and champions of public education. ISEA members are already working hard to strengthen ties in your communities. Education professionals understand that building and maintaining strong community partnerships help students grow and increases their opportunities. Supporting these opportunities is what ISEA Community Outreach Grants are all about. We encourage members and/or local associations to continue to engage in existing projects or to create new opportunities for community service with help from our grants.

ISEA Awards

Consider taking part in one of ISEA’s major awards programs which recognize outstanding achievement by students, association members, school administrators and citizens.

ISEA Scholarships

The ISEA is committed to recruiting, placing, and retaining profession-ready teachers and supporting efforts to address shortage and lack of diversity. It is important to focus on the entire teaching continuum, starting with potential educators and teacher candidates.
I'm a member because my professional union always puts kids at the center of the work we do! ISEA gives voice to students and the educators who serve our communities every day.
