TIME, RESPONSIBILITY AND INCENTIVE. The SPS and SEA believe: 1. The success of the SPS is dependent upon hiring and retaining the highest quality employees. 2. The employees of the SPS should be treated as professionals and trusted to use their professional judgment to accomplish the responsibilities expected by their profession, the SPS and the SEA. 3. Successfully providing all students with a quality education requires staff to recognize that students have prior experiences that frame their worldview and to create and provide a culturally responsive learning environment that acknowledges that all students: a. Are life-long learners b. Can academically achieve at high levels when they are appropriately taught and encouraged; when resources are available that support high expectations for learning; and, when there is strong family and community support c.

In meeting their individual responsibilities, the time necessary to fulfill those responsibilities may vary between one employee and another employee; c. State law allows additional compensation for additional time, additional responsibilities or incentives (TRI).

Compensation for these duties shall be in accordance with the TRI Salary Schedule Appendix B and payment will be made in equal monthly installments as part of the regular paycheck.
