What stands out about Aberdeen District
- Estimated teacher pay here rose +32.3% between FY2019 and FY2023, outpacing Idaho's statewide +21.5% by 10.9 points, a growth rate faster than 88% of the 109 Idaho districts with a comparable FY2019 baseline.
- Enrolment fell from 744 to 673 students (9.5% down) across FY2019–FY2023 while the instructional salary pool per teacher went up. Districts on that path are usually holding staffing steady against a falling roll, which lifts the per-teacher figure without anyone getting a raise, so read this page's salary estimate alongside the enrolment line rather than on its own.

Prices in Idaho run below the national average, so this salary has roughly the buying power of the national-price equivalent above. A district in a costlier state can advertise a larger nominal salary and still leave a teacher with less.
