"For the second straight year, the majority of students in the Algiers Charter Schools Association have boosted their standardized test scores from one year to the next, according to an analysis of state testing data that tracks individual student growth over time.
As a result, the teachers and principals who have helped their students attain such gains were rewarded Tuesday with $900,000 in bonuses at a ceremony at Algiers Technology Academy in Algiers. The rewards, which were distributed to about 340 educators across the association, are part of the System of Teacher and Student Advancement, or TAP, a national program that encourages continued professional development and training for teachers and serves as the cornerstone of the charter association's educational philosophy."
