$415,012,000 in teacher salaries in fiscal year 2022-23, $4,040 per student

Northside ISD booked $415,012,000 of teacher salaries in its 2022-23 finance report and counted 6,871 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 $60,402 of salary spending per teacher. That is more than 90 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).

    $1,445,455,000 in revenue in fiscal year 2022-23: 18.5% state, 66.4% local and 15.2% federal (NCES F-33).
  4. How many children in Northside ISD live in poverty?
    The Census Bureau estimates that 16,406 of the 125,043 children aged 5 to 17 living within the district's boundaries in 2024, 13.1%, 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 Northside ISD spend on teacher salaries?
    $415,012,000 in fiscal year 2022-23 (NCES F-33), or $4,040 per student. Divided by the 6,871 full-time teachers in the NCES Common Core of Data for 2022-23 that is $60,402 per teacher, more than 90 in 100 Texas districts (state median $50,660). 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).
  6. How do students in Northside ISD do on state tests?
    In 2021-22, the students tested in Northside ISD scored proficient or above: 51% in reading and 33% in math, against 52% in reading and 42% in math across Texas. 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.
