Average Teacher Salary Information

  • FY2025 (Budget Year):  $59,638
  • FY2024 (Prior Year):  $58,469
  • Increase of:  $1,169
  • Percentage Increase:  2%

Comments on average salary calculation: All returning teachers are budgeted to receive a 2% increase in compensation for fiscal year 2024-2025. Additionally, all teachers will receive a 2% stipend. The overall average is not reflective of the full increase due to new teachers hired with fewer years of experience than long-tenured teachers retiring from the district.
