What is the cost-sharing requirement?
For each budget year in which it will pay earned differential compensation costs as part of this project, a grantee must provide an increasing share of funds from sources other than this grant to pay for these costs as they are phased in during the performance period. In the final year of the performance period, the grantee must ensure that at least 75 percent of the differentiated compensation costs are paid from sources other than Teacher Incentive Fund grant funds. Applicants are not required to provide a cost share in budget periods when an earned differential compensation will not be awarded.
