I was just a visitor and have no idea what their policies are. I googled "alcatraz east crime museum" and clicked on tickets and found this: Adults(13-60): $29.95 Seniors(61+): $23.95 Children(8-12): $19.95 Law/Military: $23.95 I didn't see anything about special prices for teachers. My suggestion would be to do the same google search and contact them from their website to ask your question.
