Teacher Incentive Allotment (TIA)

TEA will partner with Texas Tech University to review the results of the data validation process and the system application for each submission.  Based on the data validation and system application, Texas Tech University will to determine a district’s final approval status for the Teacher Incentive Allotment. For approved districts, teacher designations are awarded and placed on certificates and TEA notifies districts of the allotment for that school year.
