What stands out about Brewton City

  • Estimated teacher pay here rose +25.2% between FY2019 and FY2023, outpacing Alabama's statewide +18.0% by 7.2 points, a growth rate faster than 75% of the 118 Alabama districts with a comparable FY2019 baseline.
  • Enrolment grew 8.0% here, from 1,133 students in FY2019 to 1,224 in FY2023, against a national picture where far more districts shrank than grew over the same period. Growth of this kind typically arrives before the funding that follows it, so per-pupil figures often dip while a district absorbs it.
