   Contingency Plan Part I:

  • Staff members not returning to campus will have their award forwarded to the address left on file with the campus.
  • Allocated money that is designated for each area and that is not paid out due to team/ teacher failure to reach their required performance level will be divided equally among the teachers who did meet the performance level for that criteria but not to exceed $10,000.00.

 Additional funds that exceed the $10,000.00 cap will be distributed equally among staff that performs.

*** According to the Commissioner’s rules concerning the Governor’s Educator Excellence Award program each individual incentive should be no less than $3,000.00 and no more than $10,000.00 per teacher to the extent practicable. Due to our campus staff size of certified teachers who teach students daily in an academic setting that exceeds 4 hours, an award of $3,000.00 to $10,000.00 is not practicable for our campus because it would exclude over 50% of our eligible staff.

 

    Part II:  Funds under Part II (no less than 25% of the total grant allocation) may be used to award    personnel who have contributed to increase student achievement (but are not eligible for Part I Funds).

*Ranking Exemplary or Recognized; OR
*Top-quartile performance with respect to Comparable Improvement in Math or Reading.
