December 9, 2018 - SACRAMENTO — State Controller Betty T. Yee has updated her Government Compensation in California website to include 2017 self-reported data for K-12 education employers, including public school districts, charter schools, and county offices of education – a total of nearly 413,000 positions and almost $16.28 billion in wages. 

While cities, counties, and special districts are required to report salary and benefits data to the State Controller, K-12 education employers are voluntary reporters. The State Controller’s Office requested data from 1,931 K-12 education employers and 527 filed reports. Of those reports, 440 were complete. More than three-quarters of K-12 education employers did not file the requested reports or they provided incomplete information.
