People Matter

We believe that in order to deliver a great public education to every student every day,

  • ur compensation strategy must attract and

sustain the talent necessary to provide exemplary levels of service.

We begin w ith our teachers…

  • If we slot teacher pay at $12,000 below median, the starting

salary of a teacher with a Bachelor’s degree, would be $52,000

  • If we cap veteran teacher salary at $11,000 above median,

their maximum salary will be $75,000 with a Bachelor’s degree

Note: Teachers reach the maximum at their 21st year of service. Assuming step increases only, a teacher with a Bachelor’s degree will reach the median income by their 14th year of teaching.

The median income in Nashville as reported by WSMV is $64,000.
