$288,560,000 in teacher salaries in fiscal year 2022-23, $4,312 per student

Frisco ISD booked $288,560,000 of teacher salaries in its 2022-23 finance report and counted 4,519 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 $63,858 of salary spending per teacher. That is more than 97 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).

  2. How much does Frisco ISD spend per student?
    $10,217 per student on current operations in fiscal year 2022-23 (NCES F-33), which leaves out construction and debt; the Texas median for districts with at least 1,000 students in fall 2022 is $12,244 and the U.S. figure is $16,260. Census Bureau figures for 2023-24 put it at $10,604 per student, up 3.8% on the year before (U.S. $17,619 that year).
  3. Where does Frisco ISD's money come from?
    $868,646,000 in revenue in fiscal year 2022-23: 13.6% state, 80.4% local and 6.1% federal (NCES F-33).
  4. How many children in Frisco ISD live in poverty?
    The Census Bureau estimates that 2,325 of the 65,273 children aged 5 to 17 living within the district's boundaries in 2024, 3.6%, 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 Frisco ISD spend on teacher salaries?
    $288,560,000 in fiscal year 2022-23 (NCES F-33), or $4,312 per student.

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 Texas teacher salary at $58,887 in 2021-22 (NCES Digest table 211.60).

Texas'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 Frisco ISD?
    98% of the 5,238 students in Frisco ISD's class of 2023 graduated within four years, against 90.3% across Texas.
