What our data shows for Secondary School Teachers, Except Special and Career/Technical Education

RoleHue publishes 57 salary records for Secondary School Teachers, Except Special and Career/Technical Education, across 4 cities. Weighted by how many records each city contributes, the band runs from $58,230 at the 25th percentile to $65,639 at the 75th, a spread of $7,409 around $60,588. Each of those three figures averages the city-level percentiles rather than ranking the pooled records, and weights each city by how many records it holds, so the cities we hold most data for pull them hardest. Measured against that $60,588 figure rather than in dollars (12% of it), that spread is tighter than 89% of the roles we cover, so a single record tells you more here than it would for most titles.

Washington, DC carries the highest median we hold for the role at $65,000; Jackson, MS the lowest at $54,100, a gap of $10,900. The middle half of those city medians, weighted by how many records each city contributes, spans $7,167, narrower than the $7,409 band within cities: for Secondary School Teachers, Except Special and Career/Technical Education, where a record sits within its own metro separates our numbers more than which metro it came from.

No single metro carries most of this: the largest share is Washington, DC, with 21 of the 57 records we publish for this role (37%). No city here reaches 25 records, the depth we treat as our threshold for calling a city median well evidenced, so every city median on this page rests on fewer records than that.
