Appendix C of the JEA / Juneau Board of Education negotiated agreement for July 1, 2025 through June 30, 2027.
The header marks the schedule "FY 27" and "6.25%"; Article 22 states the 2026-2027 schedule is the 2025-2026 schedule increased by 6.25%.
Educators hired before May 1, 1996 use an older set of column headings (B+0, B+18, B+29, B+40 or M+0, and B+58 or M+18).
- Soft spot: Appendix C is an embedded spreadsheet image, so the cells were read off the rendered page rather than from machine-readable text.
