Worked example as rendered: Bachelor Degree (IBA), years of experience 0 = $45,925 a year, $3,827.08 a month spread over 12 months. Monthly and daily figures are arithmetic on the published annual cell, before any supplement, stipend or deduction.

Appendix B of the Association of Calhoun Educators agreement, effective July 1, 2025. The minimum salary was increased to $45,925 and everyone from 0 to 14 years of experience sits on it.

The document prints a pay grade alongside years of experience; the pay grade runs one behind, so 1 year of experience is pay grade 0.

The advanced degree lanes are a flat $3,000, $4,000 and $5,000 above the bachelor lane at every step. The board may use an advanced degree in setting salary only if it is held in the individual’s area of certification.

New hires are not placed ahead of existing employees.
