Here’s a sampling of ways that local schools offer different incentives:
- In Bellbrook, retirement-eligible teachers with 20 years in the district can receive a retirement incentive of $10,000 to $30,000 depending on total experience.
- Fairborn sets limits on class size (for example, 25 students maximum through fifth grade). Teachers whose classes are over that limit receive $100 per extra student per quarter.
- In Piqua, teachers will get a 1.5 percent bonus if the district ends the year with more than 120 days worth of expenses in reserve.
- In Vandalia-Butler, teachers can earn $200 to $800 per year for excellent to perfect attendance.
- Many districts pay for life insurance for teachers. But while it's $30,000 worth in Vandalia-Butler and $40,000 in Kettering, Centerville's contract calls for insurance at twice the teacher's salary, which for many veteran teachers is more than $150,000.
- Bellbrook's contract calls for teachers to receive a 1 percent pay bonus for each year that the district receives an overall grade of A or B on the state report card.
