Since 2011, the average teacher salary has increased by 24% which is below the inflation rate of 36.4%. We do see a lot of salary improvement in the past 2 years, with some pretty significant increases in average teacher pay, which is why we improved our assessment of this district's career potential. 

At the same time, the School Board has increased the Superintendent's salary by 35% since 2011, though a much more moderate increase in the past 2 years.

This district is located in an Ultra MAGA Trump voting county where all residents are expected to be 100% supportive of everything President Trump does. Dissent is not tolerated in ultra-MAGA Wisconsin counties.
