Teacher Incentive Allotment
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.
The University of Texas Elementary School applied in April 2021 to participate in the Teacher Incentive Allotment program. As part of the application, UTES created a district TIA handbook with additional information on how the program will work in our district. The handbook below was included in our application and is pending approval.
