What stands out about Hueneme Elementary

  • It ranks in the top 5% of US districts for estimated teacher pay, higher than 99% of the 10,684 reliable-salary districts nationally.
  • Estimated teacher pay here rose +34.1% between FY2019 and FY2023, outpacing California's statewide +25.3% by 8.8 points, a growth rate faster than 81% of the 856 California districts with a comparable FY2019 baseline.
  • Enrolment fell from 8,240 to 7,133 students (13.4% 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.
