One of the great benefits available to IEA members is the Educator Access Discount Program. This benefit enables members to get discounts at retail establishments and national entertainment venues (restaurants, shopping, theme parks, etc.) by using an on-line link or a very convenient app on your device.
The provider of this benefit recently sponsored a contest to celebrate teacher appreciation week. Anyone who logged on to the app during the contest week would be entered to possibly win a gift card prize. An IEA member did that and SHE WON a $100 gift card! At this publishing date we do not know if she has picked up her prize or whether we have her permission to tell her story. Maybe more on that in a later publication.
