Michigan Students Per Teacher and Funding Per Student

The number of full-time equivalent students per FTE teacher decreased from 15.3 in 2011/12 to 13.3 in 2024/25 – a 13% drop, meaning smaller classrooms.

Over the same timeframe, funding per FTE student has nearly doubled, from $8,500 to $16,000.
