Why Join MEA?

Unionism

MEA is your union. As a union we negotiate our contract. The more you are a part of your union the more we can improve our work conditions and salaries. By definition a union is that which is united or made one; something formed by a combination or coalition of parts or members. The United States of America are often called the Union. The Marion Education Association is a coalition of Teachers, Student Service Managers, ESE Specialists, Content Area Specialists and more working together in improving our work conditions.
