CONTRACT CORNER
How well do you know your contract?
Teachers that have some kind of student growth from last year can apply for the Performance Bonus. Growth does not have to come from a standardized test or be related to your SGM. You can apply if you can show that your students are performing “significantly “above” expectations”. HR will be sending out the application and process soon. Performance Bonus information is on pg. 44 of your contract. Check the resources page on the website or click here.
