There were 5,102 students being taught by 447 teachers in Holyoke Public Schools District, which covers schools within Hampden County and has a main office in Holyoke. That's an average of 11.4 students per teacher in the district during the 2021-22 school year.
In the previous year, Holyoke Public Schools District had 5,153 students and 407.3 teachers on staff.
Despite the shortage, under-representation of ethnicities among teachers was found to be a concern. The Rennie Center reported that only nine percent of teachers are people of color.
Massachusetts has roughly one teacher for every 13 students, which is better than the national average of one teacher for every 16 students.
