Priority School Program

Priority and district intervention schools are those schools identified to receive additional resources, including increased staff, smaller class sizes and professional development. Students in these schools can most benefit by having teachers committed personally and professionally to individual student growth, who will actively invest in the school and community, who appreciate challenges and seek solutions, and who are willing to dedicate themselves to continuous improvement.

Candidates may receive signing and retention bonuses over a three year period of up to $9,000 when hired to teach in an Intervention school and up to $7,500 when hired to teach in a Priority School if they meet the established criteria listed below. Signing and retention bonuses of up to $3,000 (over three years) are available for candidates meeting the established criteria and hired to teach at any Richland County School District One non-priority school:


Criteria:

Elementary: Interested candidates must possess a valid South Carolina Professional teaching certificate with the "Highly Qualified" designation in Elementary, Early Childhood, Special Education or a Foreign Language only.
