2005-2006 School Year Summary Data

School Information

Note that Michigan's Intermediate School Districts (ISD) and Public School Academy (PSA) districts are considered to be local education agencies (LEAs) for federal reporting. Michigan uses these additional labels to indicate distinctions in governance and funding. Specifically, Michigan's ISDs, PSAs and LEAs comprise the federal LEA districts.

Ancillary Facilities
There are many ancillary facilities that serve a variety of purposes in districts. Ancillary facilities may house instructional programs (e.g., day care programs in hospitals, alternative education programs in a community center) or they may be noninstructional facilities (e.g., field houses, bus garages, etc.). Ancillary facilities may receive a code. Facilities called schools are the physical settings where instruction occurs. The physical and administrative boundaries of a school need not be identical. For example, multiple schools may be located in one facility, such as when both elementary and secondary grade levels are located in the same facility. In this example, if administered separately, elementary and secondary levels would be considered separate schools (e.g., K - 8, 9 - 12), each having its own unique School Code Master (SCM) number. When both elementary and secondary levels are administered as a single unit (e.g., K - 12), collectively they represent one school and have one SCM number. It is possible that a physical facility itself may not be one building but a cluster of structures connected together with plumbing, sanitary, heating, ventilation, mechanical, electrical, communication and technology systems, or built-in equipment.

Average Salary Per Teacher
A heading under which are gathered the full-time and prorated portions of regular teachers' salaries for teaching services provided to pupils. The computation is made by dividing the total salaries of certified staff charged to Account Code 110, Basic Programs, by the corresponding teacher FTE reported in the Registry of Educational Personnel (REP) for the same fiscal year. Districts reporting "0" in either of the datasets will show an average salary of $0 on the Bulletin 1014. Average teacher salaries for PSAs that contract with management companies for instructional staff were obtained from a separate dataset than the FID and REP. For that reason, the source instructional salaries and FTE used to calculate those averages were unavailable to create the 2006 Bulletin 1014 database (available on the MDE website) nor to calculate the rankings and grouped average salary calculations in the PDF version of the Bulletin.
