What is the Teacher Incentive Allotment System?
The Teacher Incentive Allotment (TIA) is an initiative created by the State of Texas to attract high-quality educators to work and teach at higher-need campuses. As a key part of House Bill 3, TIA is dedicated to recruiting, supporting, and retaining highly effective teachers in all schools, with particular emphasis on high needs and rural schools. In addition to helping attract and keep effective educators in the classroom, implementing the TIA system permits Tyler ISD to identify more effective educators and provide incentives for them to teach in our district.
