No. Each teacher pays into a retirement system and law prevents them getting full social security even if they have worked other jobs and earned it.

You should contact SSA for specific answer. Of course a teacher can collect social security from a spouse. HOWEVER, if a teacher worked in a state whose teachers do NOT pay into Social Security (there are 14 of them), their spouse's social security will be reduced.
Again, please consult your attorneys, tax advisor, and social security for detailed information and specifics. Ask about WEP (Windfall Provision) and GPO (Government Pension Offset).
