What stands out about Hancock Place

  • Estimated teacher pay here rose +22.7% between FY2019 and FY2023, outpacing Missouri's statewide +14.3% by 8.4 points, a growth rate faster than 71% of the 499 Missouri districts with a comparable FY2019 baseline.
  • Enrolment fell from 1,490 to 1,286 students (13.7% 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.
