What stands out about Eight Mile 6
- Estimated teacher pay here rose +22.0% between FY2019 and FY2023, outpacing North Dakota's statewide +11.9% by 10.1 points, a growth rate faster than 87% of the 130 North Dakota districts with a comparable FY2019 baseline.
- Enrolment grew 6.9% here, from 304 students in FY2019 to 325 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.
- It is a very small district (325 students), where the enrollment-based salary estimate is more sensitive to staffing mix.
