What the Special Education Teachers, Preschool median says in Missouri
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Special Education Teachers, Preschool median in Missouri at $62,250 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 25-2051 and BLS area 29.
BLS lists 940 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 $73,630 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
Missouri's Special Education Teachers, Preschool median is 4.0% below the U.S. Special Education Teachers, Preschool median of $64,830 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 25-2051 and area 29. SOC 25-2051 names Special Education Teachers, Preschool. Area 29 names Missouri. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 25-2051/29 row reports 940 wage and salary jobs, 0.32 jobs per 1,000 local jobs, and a 1.68 location quotient. Each value stays under the same two source keys.
For 25-2051/29, the annual median is $62,250 per year, while the matching mean is $73,630 per year. The row is annual only. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.

BLS area 29 facts behind this Special Education Teachers, Preschool page
Area 29 reports 2,936,050 wage and salary jobs across all covered occupations. Its annual mean is $62,160. Its annual median is $47,800. The employment RSE is 0%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.3%. These are facts for the whole area. They do not replace the 25-2051 row.
The all-jobs wage ladder in Missouri runs from $29,780 at the 10th percentile to $104,320 at the 90th percentile. The 25th percentile is $36,160. The median is $47,800. The 75th percentile is $74,260. This is a place check, not a pay range for Special Education Teachers, Preschool.
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 29. They do not show related skills or a path into Special Education Teachers, Preschool.
1. Area 29, SOC 11-1021, General and Operations Managers: 109,020 jobs, $79,300 annual median, 37.13 jobs per 1,000, and 1.65 location quotient.

Pay range
Read the Missouri wage ladder for Special Education Teachers, Preschool
The 10th percentile is $35,960 per year. The 25th percentile is $48,580 per year. The median is $62,250 per year. The 75th percentile is $111,640 per year. The 90th percentile is $119,570 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 $48,580 per year to $111,640 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $83,610. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.
Missouri has a annual median of $62,250 per year. No exact state row is linked for this area. The U.S. row has $64,830 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
A state comparison is not available for Missouri. Missouri is 4.0% 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 Missouri sits for Special Education Teachers, Preschool
Missouri ranks 22 of 45 among states and territories with a published annual median for Special Education Teachers, Preschool. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.
Rank 22 of 45 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.
19. Iowa has a Special Education Teachers, Preschool median of $63,540 per year, Not published estimated jobs, and a location quotient of Not published.
20. Nebraska has a Special Education Teachers, Preschool median of $62,760 per year, 80 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.39.
21. Illinois has a Special Education Teachers, Preschool median of $62,580 per year, 1,080 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.93.
23. New Hampshire has a Special Education Teachers, Preschool median of $61,720 per year, 80 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.63.
Pay leaders
Where Special Education Teachers, Preschool medians lead among states and territories
The rows below use the same SOC 25-2051, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same state map type. Massachusetts has the highest published median in this set, at $99,070 per year. Missouri sits at $62,250 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Special Education Teachers, Preschool 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. Massachusetts has a Special Education Teachers, Preschool median of $99,070 per year, or $36,820 above Missouri. BLS lists 710 jobs there, compared with 940 in Missouri. The location quotient is 1.03.
2. New Jersey has a Special Education Teachers, Preschool median of $92,060 per year, or $29,810 above Missouri. BLS lists 1,720 jobs there, compared with 940 in Missouri. The location quotient is 2.12.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Special Education Teachers, Preschool jobs
New York has the largest published state job estimate for Special Education Teachers, Preschool in this same-source set, at 6,220 jobs. Missouri has 940. 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. New York has 6,220 estimated Special Education Teachers, Preschool jobs, a gap of 5,280 jobs from Missouri. Its median is $68,180 per year, or $5,930 above Missouri. Its location quotient is 3.38.
2. California has 2,510 estimated Special Education Teachers, Preschool jobs, a gap of 1,570 jobs from Missouri. Its median is $59,550 per year, or $2,700 below Missouri. Its location quotient is 0.73.
Local-share leaders
Where Special Education Teachers, Preschool takes the largest share of local jobs
New York has the highest published location quotient in this state set, at 3.38. Missouri has 1.68. 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 Special Education Teachers, Preschool 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. New York has a location quotient of 3.38, a gap of 1.70 from Missouri. BLS lists 6,220 Special Education Teachers, Preschool jobs and a median of $68,180 per year, or $5,930 above Missouri.
2. Louisiana has a location quotient of 2.61, a gap of 0.93 from Missouri. BLS lists 960 Special Education Teachers, Preschool jobs and a median of $56,890 per year, or $5,360 below Missouri.
3. Minnesota has a location quotient of 2.24, a gap of 0.56 from Missouri. BLS lists 1,250 Special Education Teachers, Preschool jobs and a median of $75,880 per year, or $13,630 above Missouri.
Job scale and share
How common Special Education Teachers, Preschool is in Missouri
BLS lists 940 Special Education Teachers, Preschool jobs in Missouri. It also lists 0.32 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 1.68. A value of 1 means Special Education Teachers, Preschool 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.
Special Education Teachers, Preschool beside other roles in Missouri
The all-occupations median in Missouri is $47,800 per year. The Special Education Teachers, Preschool median is $62,250 per year. Special Education Teachers, Preschool is 30.2% 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 Missouri. 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 Special Education Teachers, Preschool. 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. Sales Representatives, Wholesale and Manufacturing, Except Technical and Scientific Products, SOC 41-4012, has a Missouri median of $61,940 per year. BLS lists 21,960 jobs and a location quotient of 0.94.
2. First-Line Supervisors of Office and Administrative Support Workers, SOC 43-1011, has a Missouri median of $63,050 per year. BLS lists 22,360 jobs and a location quotient of 0.82.
Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in Missouri
General and Operations Managers is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Missouri table, at 109,020 jobs. Special Education Teachers, Preschool has 940 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 2,936,050. 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 Special Education Teachers, Preschool's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. General and Operations Managers has 109,020 jobs in Missouri, a gap of 108,080 from Special Education Teachers, Preschool. Its median is $79,300 per year, or $17,050 above Special Education Teachers, Preschool. Its location quotient is 1.65.
2. Home Health and Personal Care Aides has 94,810 jobs in Missouri, a gap of 93,870 from Special Education Teachers, Preschool. Its median is $33,080 per year, or $29,170 below Special Education Teachers, Preschool. Its location quotient is 1.17.
Area pay mix
Published role medians around Missouri
Software Developers has the highest published median in the bounded Missouri role table, at $126,120 per year. Special Education Teachers, Preschool has $62,250 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $47,800 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 $126,120 per year in Missouri, or $63,870 above Special Education Teachers, Preschool. BLS lists 20,020 jobs, compared with 940 for Special Education Teachers, Preschool. Its location quotient is 0.63.
2. Project Management Specialists has a median of $94,660 per year in Missouri, or $32,410 above Special Education Teachers, Preschool. BLS lists 21,460 jobs, compared with 940 for Special Education Teachers, Preschool. Its location quotient is 1.07.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Missouri
Cooks, Fast Food has the highest location quotient in the bounded Missouri role table, at 4.61. Special Education Teachers, Preschool has 1.68. 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 Special Education Teachers, Preschool with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.
1. Cooks, Fast Food has a location quotient of 4.61 in Missouri, a gap of 2.93 from Special Education Teachers, Preschool. BLS lists 55,780 jobs and a median of $29,890 per year, or $32,360 below Special Education Teachers, Preschool.
2. General and Operations Managers has a location quotient of 1.65 in Missouri, a gap of 0.03 from Special Education Teachers, Preschool. BLS lists 109,020 jobs and a median of $79,300 per year, or $17,050 above Special Education Teachers, Preschool.
Price-level view
What $62,250 may mean after the Missouri price level
BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Missouri is 90.8. The U.S. level is 100. The local level is 9.2% below that mark. This is a broad price comparison. It is not a personal budget.
WageScope divides the $62,250 Special Education Teachers, Preschool median by 90.8 divided by 100. The result is $68,544 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 69.9. Goods are 96.3. Utilities are 79.4. Other services are 95.2. 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 Special Education Teachers, Preschool row is 30%. The mean-wage RSE is 17%. 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 940 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $73,630 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 Special Education Teachers, Preschool. It uses a Missouri 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 $62,250 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 Special Education Teachers, Preschool row for Missouri 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 940 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 1.68 is not a growth score. Rank 22 of 45 is not a place score. The 90.8 price index is not a personal budget.
Use the row for one clear task. Read the May 2025 wage spread for SOC 25-2051 in BLS area 29. 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 940 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.
