$1,609,000 in teacher salaries in fiscal year 2022-23, $5,454 per student
Coolidge ISD booked $1,609,000 of teacher salaries in its 2022-23 finance report and counted 29 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 $54,877 of salary spending per teacher. That is more than 73 in 100 Texas districts with a figure (state median $50,660, 1,054 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 Texas teacher salary at $58,887 in 2021-22 (NCES Digest table 211.60).
| Program | Teacher salaries | Share |

| Regular programs | $1,169,000 | 72.7% |
| Special education | $105,000 | 6.5% |
| Vocational | $167,000 | 10.4% |
