2026 Superintendent Salary Survey
This year’s TASB/TASA Superintendent Salary Survey is accepting responses!
Superintendents received an email invitation to participate on Tuesday, July 14, and a reminder was sent on Tuesday, July 21 to those who had not yet responded.
Additional HR Services contacts received an invite link if the district’s survey was not completed by Monday, Aug. 3. As a reminder, each district receives a single link to complete the survey. The survey invite can be forwarded to the employee best suited to submit the district’s data.
The deadline for survey submission is Thursday, September 3rd. There will be no deadline extension this year.
In the first two weeks of the survey:
- Surveys were submitted by 183 Texas public schools. Of those, 81 districts completed their survey within the first day.
- The median enrollment of participants so far is 861 students, and 18 participants have more than 5,000 students.
- At this time, 40 superintendents are new to their district, and 32 are first-time superintendents.
