$20,444,000 in teacher salaries in fiscal year 2022-23, $8,674 per student
Hudson booked $20,444,000 of teacher salaries in its 2022-23 finance report and counted 240 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 $85,112 of salary spending per teacher. That is more than 55 in 100 Massachusetts districts with a figure (state median $83,840, 276 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.

| Regular programs | $17,091,000 | 83.6% |
| Special education | $3,353,000 | 16.4% |
