What stands out about Youngstown City

  • Enrolment fell from 5,252 to 4,639 students (11.7% 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.
  • Its per-pupil spending of $29,838 is among the highest in the nation.
