Yorktown Independent School District continues to expand its Teacher Incentive Allotment (TIA) program, increasing the number of designated teachers from 13 last year to 20 this year. With this growth, these educators will receive a combined total of approximately $270,000 in additional compensation, an increase of $100,000 from the previous year.
The Teacher Incentive Allotment (TIA) is a state-funded program designed to provide additional compensation to teachers based on their effectiveness in the classroom and impact on student growth. The program supports teacher retention and recruitment, particularly in rural and high-needs districts, by rewarding high-performing educators.
The expansion of the TIA program in Yorktown ISD plays a critical role in ensuring that students receive high-quality instruction from experienced and highly effective educators. By incentivizing and rewarding excellence in teaching, the district strengthens its ability to attract, retain, and support top-tier teachers, creating a more stable and experienced faculty for students.
