TEA designates 54 Calhoun County ISD teachers for Teacher Incentive Allotment totaling $721,269
Summary
The Texas Education Agency designated 54 Calhoun County ISD teachers under the Teacher Incentive Allotment for 2023–24 designations; the district will receive $721,269 in allotments payable over up to five years if eligibility conditions are met.
Calhoun County Independent School District announced that 54 teachers were designated under the Texas Education Agency’s Teacher Incentive Allotment (TIA) program based on 2023–24 student-growth and T-TESS observation data. The designations — Recognized, Exemplary and Master — result in a combined allotment of $721,269 for the district’s honored teachers.
According to the district summary presented at the Aug. 4 special board meeting, individual allotments under TIA range between $6,211 and $24,912. The district reported that teachers will receive 90% of the allotment amounts and that the Texas Education Agency will award the allotment annually for up to five years if the teacher remains in a teaching position and receives a creditable year of service.
Board members formally recognized the designated teachers at the meeting. District materials provided to the Board describe the program as a state initiative intended to recruit, retain and reward highly effective teachers, specifically those in the top 30% of Texas educators under the program’s measures. The transcript did not list individual teacher names in the board minutes; the district reported the aggregate allotment total and the count of designated teachers.
