Teacher Student Success Act Funds

The Board of Education recognizes that the work of the classroom teacher is the most important school-level factor in determining student achievement. With that understanding, the Board of Education has determined that funds provided through the Teacher Student Success Act (TSSA) will be used to promote teacher development. This will be done in the following manner:

Salary Enhancement

40% of the TSSA funds will be used to augment teacher compensation. The specific manner in which this is done will be determined annually by the Board, after consulting with District Administration.

Instructional Coaching

As part of the District’s efforts to provide ongoing support to teachers, the remaining 60% of TSSA resources received by the District will be allocated to support 12 instructional coach positions in the district.
