About the Data: All Staff Report

All public education agencies are included (public districts, Cooperative Educational Service Agencies, State education facilities, County Children with Educational Disabilities Board Agencies/Schools, and charter schools).
Each record represents one assignment. Staff persons may have more than one assignment, but can be uniquely identified by a Research ID number, which is available in the report download. Salary and fringe (employee benefit) amounts are duplicated for individuals with multiple assignments.
