What stands out about Ubly Community Schools

  • Estimated teacher pay here moved +11.4% between FY2019 and FY2023, trailing Michigan's statewide +17.1% by 5.7 points, a growth rate faster than 29% of the 513 Michigan districts with a comparable FY2019 baseline.
  • Enrolment fell from 648 to 606 students (6.5% 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.
