What stands out about MSD Warren County

  • Estimated teacher pay here rose +28.8% between FY2019 and FY2023, outpacing Indiana's statewide +13.9% by 14.9 points, a growth rate faster than 90% of the 289 Indiana districts with a comparable FY2019 baseline.
  • Enrolment grew 5.1% here, from 1,321 students in FY2019 to 1,388 in FY2023, against a national picture where far more districts shrank than grew over the same period. Growth of this kind typically arrives before the funding that follows it, so per-pupil figures often dip while a district absorbs it.
