AISD REACH Brochure

AISD REACH, the Austin Independent School District's strategic compensation initiative to support and reward teachers based on classroom success, is a forward-thinking effort developed and designed to advance the District's efforts to recruit and retain the very best teachers and principals for Austin's schools.

By using a creative and innovative approach to support and reward success in the classroom, AISD REACH is working to ensure...

• A quality teacher in every classroom, especially in Austin's Highest-Needs Schools
• Improved student learning at all schools and for all students
• Professional growth for teachers
• Increased retention rates among AISD teachers and principals

The 2008-2009 school year is the second year of the AISD REACH pilot with 11 participating schools. In the 2009-10 school year, additional campuses will join, bringing the total number of schools participating in the pilot to 18.
