What stands out about Grant Public School District

  • Estimated teacher pay here rose +25.0% between FY2019 and FY2023, outpacing Michigan's statewide +17.1% by 7.8 points, a growth rate faster than 81% of the 513 Michigan districts with a comparable FY2019 baseline.
  • Enrolment fell from 1,799 to 1,638 students (8.9% 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.
