Worked example as rendered: Bachelor, yrs of exp 0 = $49,500 a year, $4,125.00 a month spread over 12 months. Monthly and daily figures are arithmetic on the published annual cell, before any supplement, stipend or deduction.
Osceola runs a performance-pay structure: the underlying salary schedule is a ladder of 961 levels in $50 increments (level 201 is the 2025-26 starting salary of $49,500, level 961 the ending salary of $87,500 for a bachelor's), and annual movement is by evaluation rating rather than by year. This crosswalk is the district's own mapping of years of experience to that ladder for new hires, which is the only experience-keyed grid it publishes.
The Masters, Specialist and Doctorate columns are the bachelor's figure plus the district's flat advanced degree supplements of $2,900, $4,185 and $5,685; those supplements are separate from base salary.
Several experience bands share one level, so 3 through 16 years and 35 through 36 years each pay the same rate.
Tentative agreement 8/20/2025, ratified by OCEA 9/3/2025 and by the school board 9/9/2025.
