Houston ISD will raise teacher pay using state funding, but instead of basing raises on experience, the district will use performance-based incentives — a move criticized by the teachers’ union, which is considering legal action.
Key Details:
NES Schools: Salaries range from $64K–$90K, with merit bonuses from $250–$1,250 based on evaluations.
Non-NES Schools: Salaries range from $63K–$89.5K, with bonuses from $500–$2,500.
Raises are tied to T-TESS evaluations, not years of service.
