Worked example as rendered: 1 Bach, years of experience 0 = $47,600 a year, $3,966.67 a month spread over 12 months, $254.55 per work day on a 187-day year. Monthly and daily figures are arithmetic on the published annual cell, before any supplement, stipend or deduction.
Salary schedule code 50, "187D TCHR", from the district's 2025-2026 certified salary schedules; the district links it as "25-26 SALARY SCHEDULE ~ Effective 10/25".
The document is a scan of the district's payroll-system Salary Schedule Report, which lists one row per rank and year of experience rather than a grid.
Every figure on this schedule is the Alabama state-based salary with no local supplement (the report's Other Salary column is zero throughout).
The district also publishes 202-day, 230-day, 240-day and 222-day teacher schedules and a TEAMS certified base pay schedule.
- Soft spot: The PDF is an image-only scan with no text layer, so the cells were read off the rendered report pages. Every value read matches the Alabama State Minimum Salary Schedule figures parsed independently from Mobile County's machine-readable 187-day schedule, which is how the transcription was checked.
- Soft spot: The payroll page posted nothing newer than the 2025-2026 schedule at the time of this harvest.
