"The national average public school teacher salary is $74,495, with California, New York, and Washington leading in pay, while Mississippi, Florida, and Louisiana are at the bottom."
"NEA researchers estimate that teachers' real earnings have actually declined by nearly 5% when adjusted for inflation, despite nominal salary increases over the decade."
The average salary for U.S. public school teachers reached $74,495, a 3.5% increase from the previous year. However, when adjusted for inflation, teachers earn less than in 2017. Approximately 3.2 million teachers worked in public schools last year, with salaries varying by state. California, New York, and Washington have the highest salaries, while Mississippi, Florida, and Louisiana have the lowest. The data does not account for cost of living differences, which may impact salary comparisons. Real earnings have declined by nearly 5% over the past decade when adjusted for inflation.
