$3,286,000 in teacher salaries in fiscal year 2022-23, $5,361 per student
Cimarron-Ensign USD 102 booked $3,286,000 of teacher salaries in its 2022-23 finance report and counted 56 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 $58,910 of salary spending per teacher. That is more than 57 in 100 Kansas districts with a figure (state median $57,761, 260 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 Kansas teacher salary at $54,815 in 2021-22 (NCES Digest table 211.60).

| Regular programs | $2,946,000 | 89.7% |
| Vocational | $110,000 | 3.3% |
