Funding and Spending

  • The following section details state funding factors for TIA designation amounts, as well as the spending plan for TIA at 麻豆区 ISD.

    Funding
    There are three funding factors that will determine the amount that designated teachers will be eligible for. The total dollar amount that LEAs would receive from the state for their designated teachers will depend on the designation level of the teacher, whether the school that the educator works at is rural, and the level of socio-economic need at the campus. The funding that LEAs are eligible for per designation are: 

    • Recognized: $3,000 - $9,000 
    • Exemplary: $6,000 - $18,000 
    • Master: $12,000 - $32,000 

    Spending

    • Designated teachers receive 90% of the amount associated with the designation (82% in compensation and 8% to TRS). 麻豆区 ISD retains 10% for TIA implementation support. 
    • Payment to designated teachers will be made in the form of a stipend once yearly in late summer.
