When do teachers get paid?

The timing of teacher pay varies significantly depending on the school district and even the specific contract a teacher has. There's no single answer. However, common payment schedules include:

* Monthly: This is a very common method, with teachers receiving a paycheck once a month.

* Bi-weekly: Some districts pay teachers every two weeks.

* Twice a month: A variation on the monthly schedule, with payments split into two installments.

The specific payment date within the pay period (e.g., the 15th and the last day of the month) also varies by district. Teachers usually receive a pay calendar at the beginning of the school year outlining their payment schedule.
