What stands out about Fletcher
- It ranks in the bottom 10% nationally for estimated teacher pay, above only 10% of districts.
- Estimated teacher pay here moved -1.3% between FY2019 and FY2023, trailing Oklahoma's statewide +6.4% by 7.7 points, a growth rate faster than 20% of the 503 Oklahoma districts with a comparable FY2019 baseline.
- Enrolment grew 5.2% here, from 446 students in FY2019 to 469 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 (469 students), where the enrollment-based salary estimate is more sensitive to staffing mix.

Prices in Oklahoma 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.
