Around AEA
T
he beginning of August is Back to
School season in Arizona. For local
association leaders and members
across the state, it also means preparing
to welcome new school employees and
helping them settle into the school district.
Many local associations host luncheons
or professional development during new
employee orientations to introduce those
new to the district to their local association
leaders, site representatives, and the work
of the Association. These events allow new
employees, many who are not familiar
with unions or bargained agreements,
to ask questions and learn about their
rights under the contract negotiated
between the local association and district
administration.
If you would like to learn more about
how you can get involved in your local
association, visit the Arizona Education
Association's website at arizonaea.org.
