This school district is located in Monroe County, where the majority of residents are huge Trump supporters. Not surprisingly, public education in this county suffers from a lack of support from the mostly MAGA county residents. 

The Monroe County school district average teacher salary ranges from $50,521 to $53,573.  The Cashton school district had one of the mid-range teacher salaries in Monroe County at $51,599.

The increase in average teacher salary for the Cashton school district was 20.4% since 2011, which was just below that rate of inflation. 

With this county being located about 50 miles from the Minnesota border, we urge teachers living here to explore teaching vacancies just across the border in Minnesota. Successful candidates could earn starting salaries of $10-15,000 more than what teachers are now earning in Wisconsin, with far higher career salary potential.

We rate the career potential for teachers in this district as a DEAD END job.

The Republican Dictatorship that has Ruled Wisconsin Since 2011 has underfunded public schools by over 4 Billion dollars in order to provide massive tax cuts to the wealthiest individual taxpayers and big business and manufacturers by severely reducing teacher salaries & benefits.
