The Qualifying Educational Background requires educators to have a bachelor's, master's, or doctoral degree in the content areas listed in statute to qualify for a supplement. Educators working less than a full-time assignment teaching in one of these courses could receive a partial salary adjustment based on the number of hours worked in the course. In addition to the $4,100 salary adjustment, the Legislature appropriated funding to cover the employer- paid benefit costs associated with retirement, worker's compensation, Social Security, and Medicare. Qualifying teachers that received the supplement are required to pay all personal payroll deductions as they do with their standard based salary.
Before submitting an application at the TSSP Service Site, please review the Utah State Board of Education website regarding the program details, qualifications and legislation. Participants are responsible to know and understand the TSSP Terms and Conditions found at the USBE website below:
