We wanted to take a look at where teachers in New Jersey make the lowest average salary, so we dove into Department of Education stats to find the districts that pay teachers the least.

We limited the list to public school districts with more than 400 students, classified as “C” through “H” districts. We found that teachers in 682-student district of Milltown are the lowest-paid, with an average salary of slightly more than $45,000, about half of what the average teacher earns in the highest-paid district (but that’s a topic for another day).
