Students, educators, workers, allies—we all belong in The SCEA.
From Chesterfield to Charleston, Oconee to Horry, we support students in all roles and responsibilities. The result? An Association as strong and diverse as its communities.
In countless ways, The SCEA members advance the cause of public education. See how they share their time, energy, and expertise to help all students and educators succeed.

Educators

Our nation’s educators help children achieve academically and learn the skills they will need to be successful and productive citizens.

The SCEA's Education Support Professional members take care of our children every day and make sure they have the tools they need to succeed in our schools and classrooms.

The Student SCEA

The Student SCEA members are the leading voice for the next generation of educators.
