MacArthur Elementary was awarded a $120,000 Texas Educator's Excellence
Grant from the Texas Education Agency. The grant was based on the school's TAKS scores
for the 2006-07 school year and MacArthur's Exemplary status. The purpose of the grant is to
provide financial incentives to the faculty and staff for achieving higher levels of student academic
performance.
Funds will be distributed in two parts:
Part 1-Teacher Incentives
(not less than 75% of the award)
Part 2-Additional Incentives (not more than 25% of the award).
Eligible faculty and staff will receive compensation from the grant in the 2009-2010 school year.
