Round Rock ISD teacher compensation planning participates in Texas Teacher Incentive Allotment program
We will create a pathway to increase compensation for classroom teachers beyond what is achievable within our current budget. Our District is committed to our goal of recruiting and retaining high-quality teachers with the implementation of TIA. TIA provides differentiated and targeted compensation for identified strategic support campuses by recruiting and retaining strong teachers.
Employee engagement survey | Your input matters to us
To keep improving, we must regularly review and analyze our systems. A productive way to listen to views at all levels of the organization is to conduct an employee engagement survey. We will be asking all staff to complete this survey twice this year, with the second administration coming in the spring. This engagement survey will replace the staff climate survey that has typically been sent out, as we feel that engagement surveys will provide us with more actionable feedback that will better inform improvement efforts across the District.
