South Dakota INCENTIVESplus is a financial incentive system that
targets teachers and principals in high-need schools in mainly rural
areas. The system includes professional development and financial
incentives to principals and instructional staff based on classroom and
school-wide gains in student achievement. South Dakota INCENTIVESplus
is funded by a five-year $20 million grant from the U.S. Department of
Education. Thirty Title I elementary and secondary schools in 11 South
Dakota school districts participate in the INCENTIVESplus
project.
