Average Hamilton-Wenham Teacher Salary nearly $78K—Among Highest in State, Report Says

Teachers in the Hamilton-Wenham school system are among the highest paid, according to a recent report.

The average teacher in the Hamilton-Wenham school system last year earned $77,909—the 52nd highest figure in the state, according to a new report by the Boston Business Journal.

The Concord-Carlisle school system last year earned $95,947, the highest average in the state. The community of Florida in western Massachusetts came in last with $35,497.

"There's really not much consistency among local towns and cities when it comes to teacher salaries and employment," the report, posted by the Journal's Craig Douglas, said. "Some communities are spending more than ever, while others are below where they were before the last recession."
