$730,596,000 in teacher salaries in fiscal year 2022-23, $3,520 per student

Orange County Public Schools booked $730,596,000 of teacher salaries in its 2022-23 finance report and counted 11,411 full-time teachers in its Common Core of Data district staff file for 2022-23 (the school files behind the staffing figures on this page count teachers separately, so the two can differ), or $64,026 of salary spending per teacher. That is more than 77 in 100 Florida districts with a figure (state median $58,157, 66 districts). It is spending, not what a teacher is paid: the salary lines and the teacher count come from different files, so the result can differ widely from the average salary the district publishes (its salary schedule gives pay); benefits are left out, and states book salaries differently, so compare districts within one state. For pay, the National Education Association put the average Florida teacher salary at $51,230 in 2021-22 (NCES Digest table 211.60).

  2. How much does Orange County Public Schools spend per student?
    $11,706 per student on current operations in fiscal year 2022-23 (NCES F-33), which leaves out construction and debt; the Florida median for districts with at least 1,000 students in fall 2022 is $11,744 and the U.S. figure is $16,260. Census Bureau figures for 2023-24 put it at $12,678 per student, up 8.3% on the year before (U.S. $17,619 that year).
  3. Where does Orange County Public Schools' money come from?
    $3,342,752,000 in revenue in fiscal year 2022-23: 27.8% state, 57.3% local and 14.8% federal (NCES F-33).
  4. How many children in Orange County Public Schools live in poverty?
    The Census Bureau estimates that 37,702 of the 237,340 children aged 5 to 17 living within the district's boundaries in 2024, 15.9%, were in families in poverty (Small Area Income and Poverty Estimates). It is a model-based estimate for everyone living in the district, not a count of its students; the free-meal shares in the school tables are counts of enrolled students.
  5. How much does Orange County Public Schools spend on teacher salaries?
    $730,596,000 in fiscal year 2022-23 (NCES F-33), or $3,520 per student. Divided by the 11,411 full-time teachers in the NCES Common Core of Data for 2022-23 that is $64,026 per teacher, more than 77 in 100 Florida districts (state median $58,157). That is spending, not what a teacher is paid: the salary lines and the teacher count come from different files, and the result can differ widely from the average salary a district publishes. The district's salary schedule gives pay. For pay, the National Education Association put the average Florida teacher salary at $51,230 in 2021-22 (NCES Digest table 211.60).
  6. How do students in Orange County Public Schools do on state tests?

Florida's own test sets what proficient means, so results compare within the state, not across states. Source: U.S. Department of Education, EDFacts state assessment results, 2021-22.
  7. What is the graduation rate in Orange County Public Schools?
    89% of the 15,478 students in Orange County Public Schools' class of 2023 graduated within four years, against 88% across Florida. The four-year rate follows the students who started ninth grade in fall 2019, adjusted for those who moved in or out. Source: U.S. Department of Education, EDFacts four-year adjusted-cohort graduation rates, 2022-23.
  8. What is Orange County Public Schools' NCES district ID?
    1201440. Each of its schools' 12-digit NCES IDs begins with these seven digits.
