10 ADVOCATE | WINTER 2017 Around AEA T his past September, Sunnyside Education Association (SEA) hosted a New Educator Bazaar with Educators Soaring With Aspiring Goals (eSWAG), AEA's program to support early career educators. The bazaar was held at Los Ranchitos School in Tucson and provided free classroom supplies to teachers new to the profession and members of their professional association. SEA members volunteered their time to collect donated items in Tucson, sort the materials, and host the bazaar. Veteran and retired teachers from Tucson and Marana say they were happy to provide supplies to new teachers and saw it as a way to give back to the next generation. Many new teachers who attended the event were grateful the Association was looking out for them and supporting them in those difficult first few weeks.
