16% of NY Teachers currently retire from school districts paying salaries exceeding $100,000.

When searching for teacher salaries in other states, I've found that many school districts post their salary schedules online. Some states even post the salary schedules for every district in the state and the salary for every teacher in the state. Not New York.

Well, it doesn't matter anymore. From Newsday's Teacher pay under exam, I obtained access to the teacher salaries of over 680 NY school districts. They're all here, in alphabetical order, followed by a table of county and regional averages.

How to read the table: 5th, 25th, . . . 95th refer to percentiles. In a district of 100 teachers, the 5th percentile salary is the salary earned by the teacher whose pay is 5th from the bottom. In a district of 200 teachers, the 5th percentile salary is the salary earned by the teacher whose pay is 10th from the bottom. Teachers earning salaries at or below the 5th percentile typically have less than two years of teaching experience.

The 50th percentile salary is the same as the median salary (not the average salary). It is the salary earned by the teacher whose salary is exactly in the middle, between the lowest and highest salaries. Teachers near the 50th percentile typically have 8 to 13 years of experience, but it really depends on the distribution of teacher experience and the number of steps on the salary schedule in each school district.

"Count" refers to the number of teachers in the school district. "Code" is NY's district code. Districts with a 5-digit code should have a leading zero. The first 2 digits of the 6-digit district code equates to the county code. "01" is Albany and the rest follow sequentially in alphabetical order.

Out of state teachers are welcome to stop by anytime, scan the numbers and dream of a life with salaries like this. However, I cannot be responsible for any adverse consequences including pathological envy, depression, labor unrest, job dissatisfaction, or firings for wasting time or misusing computers at work. NY teachers who feel under-appreciated are welcome to scan the salaries of Louisiana teachers.
