AACPS Tiered Staffing for Blueprint Funding

Below are the Tiered Staffing allocations for the 2026 - 2027 year.

Table titled "2026–2027 Tiered Staffing Ratios." Ratios are organized by school level and FARMs (Free and Reduced Meal) eligibility tier, ranging from Tier 1 (lowest poverty) to Tier 5 (highest poverty). Elementary grades list maximum students per teacher as follows — Kindergarten: 24, 22, 20, 18, 16; Grade 1 and 2: 27, 25, 23, 22, 20; Grade 3: 30, 28, 25, 24, 22; Grades 4 and 5: 32, 30, 28, 26, 23. FARMs ranges for elementary are 0–14.9%, 15–29.9%, 30–49.9%, 50–69.9%, and 70%+. Secondary middle grades (6–8) ratios are 22, 21.5, 20.5, 19.5, and 18.5, with FARMs ranges of under 10%, 10–21.9%, 22–49.9%, 50–68.9%, and 69%+.

Lower tier numbers indicate higher staffing ratios (more staff per student).
