More than 180 CFBISD teachers earn Teacher Incentive Allotment designations

September 11, 2023

The Teacher Incentive Allotment (TIA) was created by the Texas Legislature as part of House Bill 3 to provide a realistic pathway for top teachers to earn six-figure salaries and to help attract and retain highly effective teachers at traditionally hard-to-staff schools.

TIA recognizes 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.

In CFBISD, 188 teachers earned TIA awards. In total, these teachers garnered more than 1.9 million dollars, with 39 teachers being recognized, 125 teachers being exemplary and 39 teachers reaching the master level.
