3rd Annual Washington State Teacher Salaries Database Released

OLYMPIA—On March 27, 2007, the Evergreen Freedom Foundation (EFF) updated its complete look at the Washington State Teacher Salaries database. This database allows parents and interested citizens to review the salary and benefits of any teacher or other school employee in Washington State. All information is provided by the Office of the Superintendent of Public Instruction.

EFF began this listing 3 years ago as an effort to allow citizens to know exactly how much these “public employees” were being paid.

“These figures lend themselves to dispelling any myths that are out there regarding teacher’s salaries in Washington State,” said Steven Maggi, director of EFF’s Education Reform Center. “We believe that it is important to use actual data when discussing school funding issues. Using actual salary and benefit figures makes the topic of attracting and retaining excellent teachers easier to understand and is not controversial.”

The new data includes all figures from Fiscal Year 2006/7. It is organized in Excel spreadsheets, alphabetically by district.

Districts (listed alphabetically):
A-C
D-F
G-L
M-O
P-R
S
T-Z
