Know your retirement options before your last year of school

For school employees, retirement decisions bring together service credit, pension benefits, savings, and timing. Eddie helps you understand how those pieces may fit—so you can explore the options ahead.

The questions worth answering

A clearer decision starts with the right numbers.

For teachers, retirement planning is rarely one number. Eddie helps you understand how benefits, savings, and timing work together before you make a decision.

01 / YOUR PENSION

What might your pension pay?

Review how retirement age, service credit, and your benefit estimate may affect your income.

02 / YOUR SAVINGS

How can other savings help?

Consider 403(b), 457(b), and other resources alongside your expected pension.

03 / YOUR TIMELINE

What changes if you retire sooner?

Compare potential retirement dates and understand important income tradeoffs.
