What stands out about Jefferson Township Local

  • Estimated teacher pay here rose +23.9% between FY2019 and FY2023, outpacing Ohio's statewide +19.8% by 4.0 points, a growth rate faster than 71% of the 604 Ohio districts with a comparable FY2019 baseline.
  • Enrolment fell from 348 to 279 students (19.8% 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.
  • It is a very small district (279 students), where the enrollment-based salary estimate is more sensitive to staffing mix.
  • Its per-pupil spending of $31,194 is among the highest in the nation.
