Dallas ISD Principal and Teacher Incentive Program Overview
The roles of the principal as the leader and the teachers in imparting knowledge are
crucial in improving and sustaining high student achievement, particularly in urban
districts with high minority populations. The Dallas Independent School District
Principal and Teacher Incentive Pay program will reward highly effective principals
and teachers for creating, reaching, and maintaining high standards of student achievement.
The Dallas ISD has a 14-year history of identifying outstanding principals and teachers.
The proposal builds on this history and existing apparatus to identify and reward effective
principals based on a combination of direct and value-added measures of student achievement
and reward effective teachers based on value-added measures of their students' achievement.
In addition to awarding high achievement, the proposal includes refinement of the
Dallas database for tracking student-teacher assignments; incentives for principals and
teachers to participate in substantive, high-standards professional development;
incentives for highly effective teachers to move to and stay in high needs campuses;
and procedures for insuring the integrity of test results.
A broad-based steering committee will develop, implement and monitor specific
procedures for eligibility and awarding incentive funds and assuring the integrity of
results. The Dallas ISD nationally-recognized Research and Evaluation Department will
conduct a thorough evaluation of all phases of the project.
