Terms of use

By using theteacherfile.com ("the site"), you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, please don't use the site.

Information only

The site summarizes publicly available teacher salary schedules and related documents. It's general information, not financial, legal, tax or employment advice. Your actual pay depends on how your district places you, and the district's official documents and HR office are the final word. Confirm anything important with them before making decisions.

Accuracy

We check every number against its source (see our methodology), but districts change schedules, documents contain errors, and we can make mistakes too. The site is provided "as is", without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including accuracy, completeness or fitness for a particular purpose. If you find an error, please tell us.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, The Teacher File and the people who run it aren't liable for any loss or damage arising from your use of the site or reliance on its content.

Using our content

The underlying salary figures are public records, and you're free to use them. Our page text, analysis, charts and design are ours. You may quote or share short excerpts with a link back to the page. Please don't republish substantial parts of the site or copy it in bulk, including by automated scraping, without permission.

Links to other sites

We link to district, union and government documents and other websites. We don't control them and aren't responsible for their content or availability.

Email alerts

If you sign up for alerts, you can unsubscribe at any time using the link in any email. How we handle your email address is described in our privacy policy.

Changes

We may update these terms. The date at the top shows when they last changed; continuing to use the site means you accept the current version.
