A New Way to Pay Jeffco Educators

In Jeffco Public Schools—Colorado’s largest school district—we are proud of our teachers who inspire students every day. And we believe even great teachers can get better with the right support.

That’s why we are researching new ways to pay teachers for results with students and new ways to support teachers—because when teachers succeed, so do students. The goal is to dramatically increase student learning.

Jeffco’s innovative strategic compensation pilot project in 20 schools involves more than 650 educators. It’s funded by a $39 million federal grant—the largest the district has ever received.
