Simply put, educators deserve professional pay for professional work — and the members of MAE are the premier advocates fighting to ensure you’re paid what you’re worth. This also means stopping legislative cuts to your benefits such as health insurance and retirement.
From the local school board to the state legislature, elected officials are making decisions that impact your schools — join our union and be a part of the discussion. MAE members form the strongest voice advocating for educators and students in Mississippi. We’re fighting against the standardized test regime, raising the need for fair evaluations, and standing in solidarity to secure fair wages for every worker in our schools.
Being an educator can be stressful — but you’re not alone. MAE members have a support system of thousands of educators and MAE staff who live and work in your district. Whether you’re a new teacher who needs advice on a difficult classroom or a food service worker that’s pushing back against student lunch debt – our union members are here to provide support, experience, and their voices to your needs.

MAE has provided me with meaningful leadership opportunities that, in return, have catapulted my career. The support, motivation, and encouragement that I have received from MAE have given me the confidence to embrace being a teacher-leader. Through MAE, I will continue to grow professionally and support the work of public school educators.”
I love belonging to MAE because it offers opportunities and training to help me become a stronger leader and educator within my school and community. I get to network with the wonderful educators of Mississippi that have the shared vision to create great public schools for every student.”
I love being a member of MAE, because MAE gives me the opportunity to sit at the policy table when important decisions are being made that will greatly impact the working environment of educators and the learning environment of students.”
