Distribution of Compensation
Statute requires that 90% of Teacher Incentive Allotment (TIA) funds be distributed directly to teachers at the designated teacher’s campus:
- The individual TIA-designated teacher will be allocated 70% of the teacher TIA dollars for distribution.
- The other 20% will be consolidated at the campus level and then evenly distributed among other high-performing teachers (PEIMS 087) that meet the District’s criteria for high performance.
The District shall retain 10% of the TIA dollars to use as follows: - to support district oversight of the implementation of TIA and ongoing development of TIA resources.
For campuses with higher need (demonstrated by a trend of low accountability rating and a high percentage of economically disadvantaged), the district may increase the distribution to the TIA-designated teacher to 85% and the remaining 15% would be used for distribution to other teachers who meet the District’s requirement as high-performing in order to greater incentivize high performing
teachers to teach at these high-need campuses.
This same compensation plan will be used for designated teachers entering CFBISD with a designation and distributed as described according to their campus assignment.
Frequency of Compensation
TIA compensation is an annual allotment provided by the State and subject to availability of state funding allocations.
- TIA-designated teachers will receive TIA compensation annually based on their TIA designation and TIA state funding for their campus of assignment at the time TIA funds are disbursed.
- Other teachers designated as high-performing by CFBISD will receive TIA compensation annually based on TIA state funding for their campus of assignment at the time TIA funds are disbursed. Amounts will vary depending on the number of TIA-designated teachers employed at the campus.
- Compensation will be distributed in the August paycheck, provided all information is received per TEA’s published timelines.
