ARP – Nearly 20 members of the Arp ISD teaching staff will have a little extra cash in their pockets after being approved to receive the Teacher Incentive Allotment (TIA).
The TIA strives to recognize and retain promising teachers by creating incentivize programs for teachers who work in high-needs schools. Following the 2022-2023 school year, Arp ISD submitted applications for their educators to be entered into the TIA.
After the end of this school year, it was revealed that 17 members of the Arp teaching staff had been approved to join the TIA for their excellent work in the classroom. The teachers selected earned designations at one of three levels, including recognized, exemplary, and masters based on their classroom performance, student growth and rigorous evaluations.
“I am thrilled for these 17 teachers,” added Arp ISD Assistant Superintendent Stephanie Schminkey. “An incredible recognition for their hard work, dedication, and impact on students in the classroom.”
Members of the Arp ISD selected to join the Arp ISD include ten elementary teachers, three junior high teachers and four Arp High School teachers.
