What stands out about Wewoka
- Estimated teacher pay here moved -14.7% between FY2019 and FY2023, trailing Oklahoma's statewide +6.4% by 21.1 points, a growth rate faster than 5% of the 503 Oklahoma districts with a comparable FY2019 baseline.
- Enrolment grew 7.4% here, from 622 students in FY2019 to 668 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.

Prices in Oklahoma run below the national average, so this salary has roughly the buying power of the national-price equivalent above. A district in a costlier state can advertise a larger nominal salary and still leave a teacher with less.
