Angleton Independent School District is proud to announce its official acceptance into the Teacher Incentive Allotment (TIA) program. This state initiative provides a new, merit-based pathway to reward highly effective educators with additional financial compensation, supporting the district’s mission to attract and retain premier talent.
For the 2025-2026 school year, 90 AISD educators are expected to qualify for official TIA designations. This inaugural group represents the first phase of the district’s TIA rollout, meeting rigorous state standards for classroom performance and student growth in currently eligible categories.
The 2025-2026 cohort includes:
30 Master Designations (The highest level of recognition in Texas)
45 Exemplary Designations
15 Recognized Designations
In a commitment to directly investing in its staff, AISD will pass 90% of the state-funded allotment directly to the designated teachers. This provides a substantial annual financial boost ranging from $4,000 to $16,000 per eligible educator.
"TIA allows us to further invest in the people who make our schools great," Superintendent Phil Edwards said. "Any opportunity to increase teacher compensation is a win for our students and our community."
To honor these 90 individuals and their impact on student success, Angleton ISD will host a Special Reception and Awards Ceremony on April 6, 2026.
Congratulations to our first TIA cohort. We are achieving excellence because we are Wildcats!
