Boosting Educator Quality & Student Support

These new sign-on bonuses are intended to help Taylor ISD attract high-quality educators as the district continues to grow and strengthen its academic and extra-curricular programs. Currently, the base pay for a teacher with three years of teaching experience is $53,385 and, these bonuses can make a difference for educators' quality of life.

Referral Bonuses for Current Staff

In addition to the sign-on bonuses, another $1,000 referral bonus will be offered to current staff for referring a certified teacher who is hired successfully by the district. Taylor ISD will once again offer stipends for teachers who have specialized training/credentials such as bilingual education, secondary math and science, fine arts, coaching, foreign languages, and/or career technical education. Previous graduates of Taylor High School who return to teach with the district may also qualify for additional compensation.
