            The Teacher Incentive Allotment (TIA) was created by the Texas Legislature as part of House Bill 3 to help recruit, retain, and reward effective educators in the classroom at high needs campuses. The TIA would provide additional funding to eligible teachers who earn local designations through this allotment system. In April 2021, Hearne ISD plans to submit an application to the Texas Education Agency (TEA) to participate in this process.

Growth Measures: recognized, exemplary, or master. Once district criteria has
been developed, a teacher's T-TESS and Student Growth measures will be
evaluated based upon the developed rubric. Texas Tech University will verify
the process and the validity of the data. If approved, that teacher will
receive one of the three ratings listed above, along with the additional state
determined compensation for that campus. Also, the designation will be placed
on their teaching certificate.&nbsp;
A teacher's designation is valid for five years, at which time that teacher
will be re-evaluated. Based on performance during the 5-year designation, a
teacher can be recommended for a higher designation but not a lower
designation. However,if a teacher experiences significant negative changes in
performance or employment during this time, compensation can be affected.&nbsp;</span></span></span></span></span></span></p>
