The
Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) Board of
Education has approved an
incentive program* effective July 1, 2006 to recruit and
retain highly qualified math, science and special education
teachers for Decile 1-3 schools which are also designated
as Program Improvement schools.
Teachers
could receive incentives and reimbursements of up to $7,000
to teach at low-performing schools as part
of a landmark agreement with United Teachers Los Angeles
(UTLA). “Having a high-quality teacher at the head of every
classroom is the surest key to improving student achievement
and narrowing the achievement gap,” said Board President
Marlene Canter. “This agreement will help draw the best
teachers to the most challenging settings – where their
skills and
experience are most needed.” |
