What stands out about Mcgregor Public School District

  • Estimated teacher pay here rose +25.1% between FY2019 and FY2023, outpacing Minnesota's statewide +14.0% by 11.1 points, a growth rate faster than 87% of the 326 Minnesota districts with a comparable FY2019 baseline.
  • Enrolment fell from 480 to 452 students (5.8% 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 (452 students), where the enrollment-based salary estimate is more sensitive to staffing mix.
  • Its per-pupil spending of $33,788 is among the highest in the nation.
