$1,811,000 in teacher salaries in fiscal year 2022-23, $3,989 per student
Academy for Math Engineering & Science booked $1,811,000 of teacher salaries in its 2022-23 finance report and counted 23 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 $77,559 of salary spending per teacher. That is more than 77 in 100 Utah districts with a figure (state median $68,176, 139 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 Utah teacher salary at $58,619 in 2021-22 (NCES Digest table 211.60).
| Program | Teacher salaries | Share |
|---|---|---|
| Regular programs | $280,000 | 15.5% |
| Special education | $98,000 | 5.4% |
| Vocational | $164,000 | 9.1% |
