What the Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education median says in Kansas
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education median in Kansas at $56,670 per year. Median means the middle of the published wage spread. It is not one worker's pay. It is not a job offer. The row is tied to SOC 25-2012 and BLS area 20.
BLS lists 1,300 wage and salary jobs for this exact role-place row. That is a survey estimate. It is not a count of open posts. The local mean is $57,130 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
Kansas's Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education median is 9.6% below the U.S. Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education median of $62,680 on the same published median. The comparison uses the same SOC code and source period. It does not add price levels, taxes, benefits, hours, or a person's work history.
This page exists because the BLS artifact has one row for SOC 25-2012 and area 20. SOC 25-2012 names Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education. Area 20 names Kansas. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 25-2012/20 row reports 1,300 wage and salary jobs, 0.9 jobs per 1,000 local jobs, and a 1.29 location quotient. Each value stays under the same two source keys.
For 25-2012/20, the annual median is $56,670 per year, while the matching mean is $57,130 per year. The row is annual only. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.

BLS area 20 facts behind this Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education page
Area 20 reports 1,437,520 wage and salary jobs across all covered occupations. Its annual mean is $60,640. Its annual median is $48,010. The employment RSE is 0%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.3%. These are facts for the whole area. They do not replace the 25-2012 row.
The all-jobs wage ladder in Kansas runs from $28,530 at the 10th percentile to $103,250 at the 90th percentile. The 25th percentile is $35,880. The median is $48,010. The 75th percentile is $72,280. This is a place check, not a pay range for Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education.
The source rows below are the six largest detailed roles in the bounded area file. Each keeps its own SOC code. They help a reader spot-check area 20. They do not show related skills or a path into Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education.
1. Area 20, SOC 35-3023, Fast Food and Counter Workers: 47,140 jobs, $27,580 annual median, 32.8 jobs per 1,000, and 1.32 location quotient.
2. Area 20, SOC 29-1141, Registered Nurses: 33,800 jobs, $79,320 annual median, 23.51 jobs per 1,000, and 1.08 location quotient.

Pay range
Read the Kansas wage ladder for Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education
The 10th percentile is $47,180 per year. The 25th percentile is $49,210 per year. The median is $56,670 per year. The 75th percentile is $61,600 per year. The 90th percentile is $65,070 per year.
A percentile is a rank point, not a career stage. The 10th percentile does not mean new-worker pay. The 90th percentile does not mean a wage that comes after a set number of years. The points show how the wage values spread in the source. They do not say why one job sits at one point.
The middle half runs from $49,210 per year to $61,600 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $17,890. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.
Kansas has a annual median of $56,670 per year. No exact state row is linked for this area. The U.S. row has $62,680 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
A state comparison is not available for Kansas. Kansas is 9.6% below the United States on the same published median. A gap can reflect many things that are not in this row. WageScope reports the gap but does not name a cause.
The state and U.S. rows are bench marks, not replacements. They do not fill missing local facts. A state can hold many local labor markets. A national row can hold many states. Read the local row first, then use the broader rows to see scale.
Where Kansas sits for Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education
Kansas ranks 39 of 51 among states and territories with a published annual median for Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.
Rank 39 of 51 is not a place score. A small wage gap can move a row several spots. The rank does not add local prices, job count, concentration, commute, taxes, or work rules. Use it only to find where the published median falls inside this like-for-like set.
The nearby rows below are the closest ranks, not chosen cities. Their pay, job counts, and local shares can differ. Open a peer page before making a deeper comparison. A title and one number are not enough for a move or pay choice.
36. Indiana has a Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education median of $58,250 per year, 2,120 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.95.
37. Florida has a Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education median of $58,100 per year, 8,810 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.27.
38. Tennessee has a Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education median of $58,070 per year, 2,740 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.19.
Pay leaders
Where Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education medians lead among states and territories
The rows below use the same SOC 25-2012, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same state map type. Washington has the highest published median in this set, at $99,960 per year. Kansas sits at $56,670 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education is in the local mix. It also does not add local prices. The bullets keep the median, job count, and location quotient together so a high wage is not read as a full market score.
Use this list to choose a deeper pair, not to choose a place. Open the two local pages. Check the full wage ladder, the job scale, the survey care marks, and the exact BEA price row when present. A missing median stays out of this rank instead of becoming zero.
1. Washington has a Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education median of $99,960 per year, or $43,290 above Kansas. BLS lists 5,270 jobs there, compared with 1,300 in Kansas. The location quotient is 2.12.
2. Connecticut has a Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education median of $90,030 per year, or $33,360 above Kansas. BLS lists 1,420 jobs there, compared with 1,300 in Kansas. The location quotient is 1.2.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education jobs
Florida has the largest published state job estimate for Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education in this same-source set, at 8,810 jobs. Kansas has 1,300. The count shows covered job scale, not open posts.
A large job base can have a lower median than a smaller one. It can also have a location quotient near or below 1. That is why WageScope does not blend job count, pay, and local share. Each field keeps its name and unit. The rows below let you compare all three without making one score.
Current MeritLog listings can add a dated view of employer-title matches. They do not change this May 2025 order. A place with few current cards can still have a large BLS job estimate. A place with several cards can still have a smaller estimate. The sources use different clocks and scopes.
1. Florida has 8,810 estimated Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education jobs, a gap of 7,510 jobs from Kansas. Its median is $58,100 per year, or $1,430 above Kansas. Its location quotient is 1.27.
2. California has 7,430 estimated Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education jobs, a gap of 6,130 jobs from Kansas. Its median is $82,550 per year, or $25,880 above Kansas. Its location quotient is 0.58.
Local-share leaders
Where Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education takes the largest share of local jobs
Puerto Rico has the highest published location quotient in this state set, at 6.27. Kansas has 1.29. A value above 1 means the role's local job share is larger than its national share.
A high quotient can come from a small local job base. It does not prove more jobs, more posts, faster growth, or higher pay. The bullets keep each quotient beside its BLS job count and median. This lets a reader see when the three measures point in different ways.
Use this list to ask where Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education is a large part of the local mix. Use the employment list to ask where BLS counts the most jobs. Use the pay list to ask where the median is highest. None of those lists decides where a person should work.
1. Puerto Rico has a location quotient of 6.27, a gap of 4.98 from Kansas. BLS lists 4,120 Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education jobs and a median of $61,760 per year, or $5,090 above Kansas.
2. Louisiana has a location quotient of 2.76, a gap of 1.47 from Kansas. BLS lists 3,730 Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education jobs and a median of $53,130 per year, or $3,540 below Kansas.
3. Washington has a location quotient of 2.12, a gap of 0.83 from Kansas. BLS lists 5,270 Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education jobs and a median of $99,960 per year, or $43,290 above Kansas.
Job scale and share
How common Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education is in Kansas
BLS lists 1,300 Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education jobs in Kansas. It also lists 0.9 jobs per 1,000 local jobs. Jobs per 1,000 turns the count into a rate. It helps compare places of different size. It does not show open posts or hiring speed.
The location quotient is 1.29. A value of 1 means Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education has the same share of local jobs as it has across the nation. This row is higher than 1. The quotient is a share check, not a wage or a growth measure.
Read the three values as separate facts. Employment asks how many covered jobs BLS estimated. Jobs per 1,000 asks how much of the local job base the role takes. Location quotient asks how that share compares with the national share. None of them tells you how many posts are open today.
Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education beside other roles in Kansas
The all-occupations median in Kansas is $48,010 per year. The Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education median is $56,670 per year. Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education is 18.0% above the local all-occupations median on the same published median. This compares one role with the full covered job mix.
The nearby role medians below come from the bounded detailed-role table for Kansas. They are close by wage, not by task. A small wage gap does not mean two jobs need the same skill or lead to the same career. Official titles keep their own SOC codes and source rows.
Use the list to spot the local wage mix around Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education. Then open the role page you mean. A role can have a similar median and a very different job count or local share. The pay number alone cannot show fit, demand, or a path between jobs.
1. Elementary School Teachers, Except Special Education, SOC 25-2021, has a Kansas median of $56,450 per year. BLS lists 14,350 jobs and a location quotient of 1.12.
2. Heavy and Tractor-Trailer Truck Drivers, SOC 53-3032, has a Kansas median of $58,920 per year. BLS lists 24,220 jobs and a location quotient of 1.27.
Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in Kansas
Fast Food and Counter Workers is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Kansas table, at 47,140 jobs. Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education has 1,300 jobs in its exact role-place row. The two counts show where this role sits beside other large parts of the local job base.
The all-occupations job count is 1,437,520. The detailed list below is only a bounded view of that larger mix. It does not sum to every local job. It does not include a blank role as zero. It helps explain why one role's wage and job count should not stand in for the whole area.
A large role can have a lower median. A smaller role can have a higher one. Job count does not show current posts, job quality, or growth. Use the list to see local scale. Then keep Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. Fast Food and Counter Workers has 47,140 jobs in Kansas, a gap of 45,840 from Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education. Its median is $27,580 per year, or $29,090 below Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education. Its location quotient is 1.32.
2. Registered Nurses has 33,800 jobs in Kansas, a gap of 32,500 from Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education. Its median is $79,320 per year, or $22,650 above Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education. Its location quotient is 1.08.
Area pay mix
Published role medians around Kansas
Software Developers has the highest published median in the bounded Kansas role table, at $113,420 per year. Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education has $56,670 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $48,010 per year. A role above that mark is not better. A role below it is not worse. The mark only shows where the role's published median sits against the full covered job mix. Job tasks, level, hours, and work setting are separate facts.
The bullets keep each SOC title, job count, median, and local share together. Use them to find a role page worth opening. Do not use a close median as proof that two roles share skills or that one is a path to the other.
1. Software Developers has a median of $113,420 per year in Kansas, or $56,750 above Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education. BLS lists 13,580 jobs, compared with 1,300 for Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education. Its location quotient is 0.87.
2. General and Operations Managers has a median of $92,840 per year in Kansas, or $36,170 above Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education. BLS lists 24,660 jobs, compared with 1,300 for Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education. Its location quotient is 0.76.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Kansas
Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive has the highest location quotient in the bounded Kansas role table, at 2.04. Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education has 1.29. Both values compare a local job share with the matching national share.
A quotient above 1 means the role takes a larger share of local jobs than it does across the nation. It does not mean more jobs than every other role. It does not mean open posts, growth, or high pay. The job count and median beside each row answer those other narrow questions.
The local role-share mix can differ a lot from the pay mix. Read both lists. Then compare Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.
1. Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive has a location quotient of 2.04 in Kansas, a gap of 0.75 from Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education. BLS lists 32,120 jobs and a median of $42,270 per year, or $14,400 below Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education.
2. Packers and Packagers, Hand has a location quotient of 1.91 in Kansas, a gap of 0.62 from Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education. BLS lists 9,900 jobs and a median of $44,460 per year, or $12,210 below Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education.
Price-level view
What $56,670 may mean after the Kansas price level
BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Kansas is 90.1. The U.S. level is 100. The local level is 9.9% below that mark. This is a broad price comparison. It is not a personal budget.
WageScope divides the $56,670 Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education median by 90.1 divided by 100. The result is $62,919 in national-price dollars per year. This proxy keeps the math clear. It is not take-home pay and does not set a move target.
Housing is 71.2. Goods are 94.0. Utilities are 88.4. Other services are 93.8. The parts do not move as one. WageScope uses BEA's all-items index for the proxy and does not make its own basket.
The employment RSE for this Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education row is 4.3%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.6%. RSE means relative standard error. It is a survey precision flag. A smaller value often means less sampling uncertainty. It is not the chance that one person's pay is right or wrong.
The employment RSE belongs to the 1,300 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $57,130 mean. BLS does not give the same RSE field for the median or every percentile. WageScope does not move an RSE from one field to another.
A local row can change in a new release. A small role-place sample can also have more survey uncertainty than a broad national row. Keep the May 2025 date next to the value. Do not mix a newer job post with the BLS date as if both facts came from one clock.
The job block looks for strict employer-title matches to Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education. It uses a Kansas place filter only when the public place list has an exact approved match. If that match is not safe, the page says the jobs are not narrowed to this place. A false negative is safer than showing a different role.
Each card keeps its employer, place, source, and seen date. Listings can change between visits while the survey figures stay tied to their release date. A listing range does not replace the $56,670 BLS median. The listing and survey answer different questions.
Open one listing. Check its level, work place, pay range, and needs. Then tailor with work facts you can support. Do not turn a wage, job count, rank, or price proxy into a résumé claim. The public page is read only. It does not save a job or start a draft on load.
What the Kindergarten Teachers, Except Special Education row for Kansas does not claim
The row does not say what one person earns. It does not promise a job, offer, raise, or move result. It does not say why the local median differs from the U.S. row. It does not add tips, bonus pay, stock, benefits, taxes, or work hours unless those items are in the BLS wage measure.
The 1,300 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 1.29 is not a growth score. Rank 39 of 51 is not a place score. The 90.1 price index is not a personal budget.
Use the row for one clear task. Read the May 2025 wage spread for SOC 25-2012 in BLS area 20. Compare the same metric with the state and U.S. rows. Add the separate 2024 price level when present. Inspect a dated job match. Then use confirmed work facts for a résumé.
BLS published an employment estimate of 1,300 wage and salary jobs for this exact row. It is a survey estimate, not a current opening count or forecast.
Are the current job listings included in the BLS wage calculation?
No. MeritLog shows eligible live public-catalog listings separately, with their own source and observation date. Posted pay never changes the official BLS distribution.
