Salaries & Compensation
Salaries for new classroom teachers and librarians are based on the salary ranges below (10-month work schedule). Salaries listed below reflect the 2025-2026 school year.
*Texas Education Code § 5.001 defines “classroom teacher” as an educator who is employed by a school district and who, not less than an average of four hours each day, teaches in an academic instructional setting or a career and technology instructional setting.
- Starting salary for classroom teachers with 0 years of experience increased to $57,500
- New-to-district classroom teachers with 25+ years of creditable experience will be placed at the new maximum of $70,700
All salary ranges are adopted annually by the Board of Trustees. The District ensures salary placement for new hires will be based on verified years of experience according to the Commissioner’s Rules on Creditable Years of Service. These ranges should not be used to project salary amounts for subsequent years.
In addition, teachers may qualify for the following stipends:
Certification Requirements
The District searches for the most qualified, fully-credentialed candidates for principals consideration in filling teacher vacancies. The majority of teachers hired in the district possess full state certification at the time of employment. These candidates will be given preference in the screening and selection process for employment.
Alternative Certification Programs
In identified “critical needs” areas, principals may give consideration to candidates admitted to Alternative Certification Programs (ACP’s) with official approval and sanction by the Texas Education Agency. There are a few local and regional post-baccalaureate programs leading to master’s degrees and teacher certification in “critical needs” areas whose candidates may also be given consideration.
The District considers ACP teacher candidates, which have taken and passed content area TExES certification exam, for the following “critical needs” shortage areas to complete field experience/clinical teaching requirements.
- Special Education
- Languages Other than English
- Bilingual
- Technology Applications
- Computer Science
- Health Science Technology
- Family Consumer Science Education
- Technology Education
- Deaf or Hard of Hearing
The District does not administer an in-house Alternative Certification Program.
