See our estimates for teacher salaries by school

Since the release of our February 2005 report, California’s Hidden Teacher Spending Gap: How State and District Budgeting Practices Shortchange Poor and Minority Students and Their Schools, which reveals substantial gaps in spending on teachers between high- and low-poverty and high- and low-minority schools within the same district, people have asked us for the school-level teacher salary data that we used to calculate these gaps. On these pages, you’ll find the estimated average teacher salaries,and the poverty and minority gaps (i.e., the amount of money each school would need to catch up to what the lowest-poverty and lowest-minority schools in their district are spending on their teachers) in every school in California that was included in our analysis. On these pages, you can do two things:

1. Find the estimated average teacher salary and hidden teacher-spending gaps for any school. To find this school-level data, just fill in all or part of the district name below.
2. Upload the actual teacher salaries in your district. To upload the actual teacher salaries in your district, first find your district (fill in the district name below) and then follow the link that says "provide the actual average teacher salaries for the schools in your district."
