There were 1,697 students being taught by 142.8 teachers in Webster Public Schools District, which covers schools within Worcester County and has a main office in Webster. That's an average of 11.9 students per teacher in the district during the 2021-22 school year.
In the previous year, Webster Public Schools District had 1,682 students and 132.9 teachers on staff.
However, the state is facing a teacher shortage, just like the rest of the U.S. NewsNation reported that the state was offering emergency teaching licenses to educators who only had bachelor’s degrees, in an effort to get more teachers into schools.
Massachusetts has roughly one teacher for every 13 students, which is better than the national average of one teacher for every 16 students.
