Description:
Strategic compensation is becoming an increasingly important tool for charter schools looking to attract, retain, and reward great educators. House Bill 2's Enhanced TIA builds on this idea by encouraging school systems to implement comprehensive, performance-based talent systems. In this session, charter leaders will dig into what that actually takes: opening TIA eligibility to every teacher type, building out performance-based pay and evaluation systems, placing educators where student need is greatest, and getting data and quality-control processes solid enough to hold up. We'll spend time on the planning side too, because this kind of shift doesn't happen without cross-functional coordination, buy-in from staff, and a financial model that holds up over several years. By the end, you should have a good read on whether your system is ready to make the leap to Enhanced TIA, and what the extra 10% in funding could mean for you.
