Charter School Benefits Benchmarking & Plan Design
Charter School Benefits Benchmarking Informed by Real-World Experience
MDG Benefit Solutions provides charter schools with benefit plan benchmarking grounded in extensive experience working exclusively with education organizations. Our benchmarking approach reflects the realities of public charter school operations, staffing models, and budget constraints.
Rather than relying on broad market averages, we analyze plan design and cost data drawn from peer charter schools to help leadership teams evaluate competitiveness, affordability, and sustainability.
Peer-Based Benchmarking That Supports Confident Decisions
Our charter school benchmarking analyses help answer critical questions, including:
- How do our benefit plans compare to similar public charter schools?
- Are our employer and employee contributions aligned with peer organizations?
- Which plan design features drive cost efficiency without reducing value?
This insight supports informed decision-making for boards, executive leadership, and HR teams.
Plan Design Strategies Aligned with Charter School Priorities
We help charter schools design benefit plans that reflect their mission, workforce, and financial goals. Our recommendations are informed by:
- Charter-specific utilization and enrollment trends
- Teacher and staff benefit preferences
- Long-term cost management considerations
The result is a benefit strategy that balances fiscal responsibility with employee engagement.
Supporting Transparency and Governance
Our benchmarking reports are designed to be clear, defensible, and suitable for presentation to governing boards and stakeholders. This transparency helps charter schools demonstrate prudent stewardship of resources while maintaining competitive benefit offerings.
