What stands out about Winslow Schools

  • Estimated teacher pay here rose +27.3% between FY2019 and FY2023, outpacing Maine's statewide +20.0% by 7.3 points, a growth rate faster than 81% of the 159 Maine districts with a comparable FY2019 baseline.
  • Enrolment fell from 1,182 to 1,069 students (9.6% 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.
