Worked example as rendered: 196 days, step 9 = $49,451 a year, $4,120.92 a month spread over 12 months. Monthly and daily figures are arithmetic on the published annual cell, before any supplement, stipend or deduction.
The matrix lanes are contract length, not degree. Each column carries two pay codes, one for performance pay and one for grandfathered: 196 days is IA8/IA8-A and IN196/IA1-A, 206 days IB8/IB8-A and IN206/IB1-A, 216 days IC8/IC8-A and IN216/IC1-A, 226 days ID8/ID8-A and IN226/ID1-A, 12 months IE8/IE8-A and IN261/IE1-A.
Advanced degree supplements are cumulative: Masters $2,750, Specialist $1,500, Doctorate $1,250, so a doctorate draws all three, $5,500 a year.
Grandfathered and Professional Services Contract teachers are awarded a step annually under Article XXV(25) Section Q of the collective bargaining agreement.
Annual Contract teachers on performance pay receive $1,438 for a highly effective and $1,078 for an effective overall evaluation instead of a step.
