This site reports data for California's K-12 public school system only.

Staff PhotoEmployees in the public school system are grouped into four categories. The first three—teachers in classrooms or specific programs; pupil services, such as counselors or librarians; and most administrators—need state-approved credentials. The fourth, classified employees, ranges from instructional aides in the classroom to business managers, school secretaries, bus drivers and custodians.

Salaries, wages and benefits are typically 80 to 85% of each district's expenditures. For information about school district and county office of education budgets, see the Financial Statements on the pull-down menus.

For information about how staffing ratios in California compare to other states, see the Staff per 1,000 Pupils table in the Comparing California article.

Assignment definitions
Source: California Department of Education, Educational Demographics Office (CBEDS, assign07 7/15/08, sifade07 8/19/08)
Teaching assignments may have many configurations that affect the teacher and full-time equivalent counts. For instance, two half-time teachers who team-teach count as two teachers but only one full-time equivalent, and a teacher who works three-fifths time counts as one teacher but only a 0.6 full-time equivalent. In addition, teachers with split assignments may be counted in more than one area. Therefore the numbers on this table may differ from other teacher counts, such as in the Teachers by Ethnicity table.

The Department of Education reports that in 2007-08 most teachers--95% statewide--had full credentials, with an additional 3.7% teaching on emergency permits or waivers. About 3.5% were university or district interns or pre-interns. Since teachers may hold more than one credential, these counts could add up to more than 100%.
