This school district is located in Dane County, which historically has voted around 80% for Democrats and is the fastest growing county in Wisconsin. Buoyed by the city of Madison and the University of Wisconsin, Dane County is one of the most desirable counties in Wisconsin to live in.

Teachers in Dane County school districts earn some of the highest salaries in Wisconsin. Like every Wisconsin county, some school districts are really great places to work while the school boards in other districts have used Act 10 to make their districts really lousy places to teach.

The Deerfield school district has one of the lower average teacher salaries in Dane County at $56,497. Since July 2011, this school district increased the average teacher salaries by 21.2% which was below the inflation rate. 

We think that the Deerfield school district could have done better in terms of it's pay structure for teachers since it awarded the Superintendent a pay raise over 46.3% during the same time period.

For these reasons, we rated the career employment potential for teachers in this district as a Dead End job.
