About the Teacher Incentive Allotment

What is the Teacher Incentive Allotment?

HB 3 established the Teacher Incentive Allotment (TIA) to recognize effective teachers on three different levels: Recognized, Exemplary, and Master. These teacher designations generate additional teacher-focused allotment funding for districts in order for them to reward their top performers.

Teachers earn designations through two different routes. First, National Board Certified teachers are eligible to earn a Recognized designation. Second, districts may designate their effective teachers when they are approved for a local teacher designation system. The approval process is multi-step and includes the submission of a system application to the Texas Education Agency (TEA) and then a data validation process through Texas Tech University.

 

TIA Allotment Amounts

TIA allotment amounts are determined by three factors:

  1. Teacher designation levels

  2. Socio-economic level of the campus

  3. Rural or non-rural status

More information can be found on TEA's Teacher Incentive Allotment funding page

TENTATIVE amounts for Bartlett ISD are depicted according to the current socio-economic levels of each campus and rural status. The allotment amount will vary every year.

Average Campus Allotment

Recognized $7,678*
Exemplary $15,355*
Master $27,592*

 

Bartlett ISD's Goals for TIA

Improving Teacher Retention and Recruitment

We aim to attract and retain high-quality teachers by offering competitive compensation based on performance, particularly in high-need areas and hard-to-staff areas.

Improving Student Academic Outcomes

We will focus on enhancing teacher effectiveness to positively impact student achievement, linking teacher performance to measurable student growth and success.
