Where this comes from
Arkansas Division of Elementary and Secondary Education publishes Teacher salary schedule analysis, FY 2025-26 (district minimums and tops), which every Arkansas district files each year. The full step-and-lane grid is published by the district itself; this page carries the figures the state collects, which is what the salary-estimate sites do not have.
