SUDBURY, MA - Public school teachers in Lincoln-Sudbury were some of the highest paid in Massachusetts in 2015.

Earlier this month, the Boston Business Journal released a full list of average annual salaries of public educators in each community, based on data from the Department of Early and Secondary Education.

According to the study, the average salary of public school teachers in Sudbury last year was $91,243, more than $16,000 of the statewide average of $74,737.

The town was 10th out of 317 school districts that reported data to the state. Benefits such as summers off and pensions, negotiated between individual school districts and unions, were not included in the data.

Average wages were determined by dividing each district's total salaries and stipends by the number of full-time teachers employed in 2015.
