I have been hearing a lot about teacher salaries over the past year. Usually talking about how low they are in Southern states. Of course, you would expect them to be lower in states with a lower cost of living, so I decided to calculate a cost-of-living-adjusted teacher salary chart and see how that affected the data. Maybe not a huge amount, but Hawaii sure looks bad when you do that. I also put an asterisk by each state with SAT scores in the top 10. Here are the results for what they are worth. State Cost-of-Living Adjusted Teacher Salaries ILLINOIS * $67,975.76 MICHIGAN * $67,733.05 OHIO $61,446.37 PENNSYLVANIA $60,098.91 MASSACHUSETTS $58,376.24 GEORGIA $57,407.61 WISCONSIN * $56,987.38 INDIANA $56,445.56 WYOMING $56,381.91 NEVADA $55,872.50 IOWA * $54,593.65 KENTUCKY $54,281.91 DELAWARE $54,194.57 NEW YORK $54,057.99 NEBRASKA * $53,282.34 TEXAS $53,214.44 MINNESOTA * $53,201.19 IDAHO $53,038.03 OREGON $52,855.94 CALIFORNIA $52,776.83 MARYLAND $52,297.63 WASHINGTON $52,092.52 LOUISIANA $52,023.35 ALABAMA $51,734.85 CONNECTICUT $51,692.83 TENNESSEE $51,115.94 ARKANSAS $51,098.90 NEW JERSEY $51,090.35 VIRGINIA $50,845.67 KANSAS * $50,760.35 NEW MEXICO $50,689.73 UTAH $50,573.12 SOUTH CAROLINA $49,526.32 COLORADO $49,376.13 OKLAHOMA $49,270.00 MISSOURI * $48,784.71 NORTH CAROLINA $48,750.00 RHODE ISLAND $48,428.46 ALASKA $47,992.37 MONTANA $47,898.37 MISSISSIPPI $47,322.44 ARIZONA $47,175.60 FLORIDA $46,760.74 WEST VIRGINIA $45,817.81 NORTH DAKOTA * $44,941.83 NEW HAMPSHIRE $44,069.88 MAINE $43,286.24 VERMONT $42,384.62 SOUTH DAKOTA * $39,969.91 HAWAII $34,052.57
