Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School salary in Utah

This is not a guess and it is not a job ad. It is the published BLS figure for special education teachers, kindergarten and elementary school in Utah, where the median was $61,290 a year. I keep the source on every page because a salary number without a source is just a story.

The middle half of workers earned from $49,190 to $79,170 a year. Employment size matters too. A field with many workers in a state usually means more openings and more room to move employers without moving states. A small field can pay well but offer fewer ways in.

ESTIMATED PAY BEFORE STATE TAX

Federal tax $5,175 · FICA $4,689

State tax is not in this figure. State tax for Utah is not included, because the full 2026 state table for Utah has not been verified in this build. Treat this figure as before state tax, not as a final take-home figure.

Read this before you use the take-home figure. It is a single-filer estimate using the 2026 standard deduction. It leaves out credits, other deductions, local taxes, and retirement or health deductions. Your actual paycheck can differ, and for states without a verified 2026 table in this build, state tax is still to be added once its table is verified.
