Worked example as rendered: BA, step D = $51,421 a year, $4,285.08 a month spread over 12 months. Monthly and daily figures are arithmetic on the published annual cell, before any supplement, stipend or deduction.
Posted by the New Haven Federation of Teachers as the salary schedules for the 2026-2029 agreement, which the union ratified in January 2026; the same sheet also prints 2025-26, 2027-28 and 2028-29.
Steps are lettered, not numbered. The 2025-26 schedule listed steps B and C with no values; the 2026-27 schedule prints D through S only, and step S is new for 2026-27.
The 2026-27 figures for steps D through R are identical to 2025-26.
Movement across the schedule (BA to MA to 6th to PHD) is governed by Article XII, Section 1. Longevity payments are separate from the grid.
- Soft spot: The source is the union's copy of the schedule appendix rather than the full signed agreement; the district does not post the teachers' contract on nhps.net.
- Soft spot: The sheet does not state the contract work year, so work_days is null.
