Teacher pay in California rose sharply last school year as educators demanded their salaries keep up with rising inflation.
Average pay for teachers in California public schools rose to $95,160 in the 2022-23 school year, an increase of 7.5% from 2021-22, new state data show.
The sharp increase comes after years of modest pay increases that often didn’t match inflation. Statewide, average teacher pay increased by about 23% between 2015-16 and 2022-23. By comparison, inflation rose about 26% during the same period.
