Assistant Superintendent Leah Bobbitt told trustees that 2025–26 is the TIA Data Capture Year; district assessments this year will feed designations determined in 2027 and funds will be distributed to designated teachers after state payment arrives in fall 2027.

Leah Bobbitt, assistant superintendent for WEST RUSK COUNTY CONSOLIDATED ISD, told the board the 2025–26 year is the Teacher Incentive Allotment (TIA) Data Capture Year, with beginning- and end-of-year assessments used to measure student growth for eligible teachers. “The 2025-2026 is considered the Data Capture Year with Beginning of the Year and End of the Year assessments given to determine student growth measures for eligible teachers,” she said.

Bobbitt said the district will adopt a spending plan in spring 2026, submit this year’s data to the Texas Education Agency in October 2026 and that Texas Tech and TEA will determine teacher designations between February and May 2027. She noted the state will not send TIA funds to districts until September 2027 and that the district must distribute any funds to designated teachers by Aug. 31, 2027. The presentation was informational; no board action was required.
