How does Medford teacher pay compare to the national average?

Why is the per-pupil figure for Medford so high?

Medford is a specialized or regional agency (such as a county office, service cooperative, or career-technical center) that directly enrolls only 312 students while delivering programs to many more. Dividing its $21.1M budget by that small enrollment produces a per-pupil figure that is not comparable to a standard school district, so we report total spending and enrollment instead.

What percentage of Medford's budget goes to teacher salaries?

Instructional salaries account for 10% of Medford's total expenditure of $21.1M (NCES FY2022).

Where does this teacher salary data come from?

This data is sourced from two NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) surveys, Fiscal Year 2022: the F-33 Local Education Agency Finance Survey (instructional expenditure, variable Z33) and the Staff Universe Survey (reported teacher headcount). Salary figures divide the former by the latter, falling back to an enrollment-based estimate only when a district has no reported headcount. These are district-level aggregates, not individual salary records.
