I was awarded Exemplary through local designation. Did anyone else earn a designation? Very excited about the incentive pay, but I'll believe it when it hits the bank.

That's awesome! Can you tell us what metrics they are using to determine if band directors earn the designation? I've been searching everywhere and couldn't find anything. I even posed the question on The Yellow Board and the only responses I received where snarky and sarcastic...

Our district used Student Learning Objective and TTESS scores. I am to understand that each district does the math differently,but ours allowed me to earn Exemplary by proving 67% student growth and a 4 on TTESS.

You are correct. Each district determines their own criteria AND who can participate. Our district loves us so much that the fine arts - not electives, the fine arts - will be the last to be added in the fifth year after the program starts, which might be next year (but no later than the 24-25 school year).

Would you be willing to send me some specifics too? I have yet to hear my districts plans for music teachers. britni.nuckols@amaisd.org
