 New Boston Local School District will disburse TIF Award to those designated staff members in our Award Model employed by NBLSD by October 1, 2011 though May 15,  Using the New Boston TIF Award model, NBLSD will disburse awards to designated staff members in attendance 94.5% of the school year. This excludes absences for bereavement; military leave, religious holiday, vacation, short term disability, FMLA, personal illness, family illness, or personal leave. NBLSD staff members must be in good standing with district.  Employees must be in good standing at the time of payment. Therefore, an employee under investigation or reassigned pending investigation is not eligible for the TIF Award payment until he or she is cleared of any allegation. If the investigation is concluded with a confirmation of inappropriate employee behavior, the employee is not eligible to receive the TIF Award. Additionally, employees who retire in lieu of termination or resign in lieu of termination are not eligible to receive the TIF Award payment.  If an employee meets all of the eligibility requirements for an award and then resigns or retires from the district prior to the payout of the TIF award, the employee is still eligible for the award.  New Boston Local School District will use the BFKAward™ tool to communicate individual awards, describe eligibility, calculate award amounts and process appeals. NBLSD TIF Award components will include quantifiable measurements.
