ProComp Negotiations
March 26, 2015
Summary of Proposal
Clarity on ProComp Incentives for 2014-2015
•
Top Performing incentive cannot be awarded in the same manner for the 2014-15 school year
• There will be no overall rating on the 2015 School Performance Framework
• Significant overlap between High Growth and Top Performing incentives – i.e., 91% of teachers who receive Top Performing
also receive High Growth incentive
• Proposal to award Top Performing incentive to teachers in schools that achieve High Growth status for 2014-2015 only
•
Base-building potential for teachers (SGOs, PDUs, CPE)
• Participation rubric for SLOs based on participation, rather than outcomes against goals
• DCTA proposal regarding eligibility for CPE incentive (March 16th, paragraphs 5 and 8)
• Maintain incentive for completion of PDUs at current levels

Summary of Proposal
ProComp Incentives for 2015-2016
•
Expand eligibility for Hard-to-Serve incentive to teachers in all Title 1 schools
• All teachers in Title 1 schools to receive current level of hard-to-serve incentive ($2,481)
•
Increase amount of Hard-to-Serve incentive for teachers in Highest Needs Schools
• 30 schools identified as Highest Needs according to School Performance Framework and Tiered School Support Framework
• Teachers in the 30 Highest Needs Schools represent approx. 25% of total teachers in DPS
• Incentive for teachers in Highest Needs Schools would increase to as much as $5800 and would replace the Hard-to-Serve
incentive of $2481 for those teachers
•
Expand eligibility for Exceeds Expectation incentive to all teachers
• Exceeds Eligibility incentive no longer limited to teachers in certain subject areas
• All teachers eligible to earn incentive, which is awarded based on holistic view of performance rather than single set of test
scores
• Award incentive to teachers who achieve Distinguished in LEAP end-of-year rating
•
Amount of High Growth incentive remains the same; Reduce amount of Top Performing incentive
• Significant overlap between High Growth and Top Performing incentives – i.e., 91% of teachers who receive Top Performing
also receive High Growth incentive
• Each $500 reduction in Top Performing incentive can fund increase of approximately $1000 in incentives for teachers serving in
Highest Needs Schools
•
Compromise for 2015-16 on base-building potential for teachers (SGOs, PDUs, CPE)
• DCTA proposal regarding SLOs for 2015-2016 based on participation, rather than outcomes against goals (March 16th
proposal, paragraph 3)
• DCTA proposal regarding eligibility for CPE incentive (March 16th proposal, paragraphs 4 and 8)
• Maintain incentive for completion of PDUs at current levels

Expanding the Hard-to-Serve incentive to all Title I
schools would cost ~$900K-$1.0M
Current percent of
teachers receiving Hardto-Serve incentive1
~57%
Percent of teachers in
Title I schools2
~65%
Notes: Based on 4,567 teachers in ProComp for ’14-’15 and current ProComp incentive of $2,481
1. Based on ‘13-’14 ratio of number of full Hard-to-Serve incentives distributed and total number of teachers in ProComp in ’13-’14
2. Based on ratio of Title I schools to all DPS schools
$900K - $1.0M
