Worked example as rendered: Range minimum, years of completed experience 0 = $55,137 a year, $4,594.75 a month spread over 12 months. Monthly and daily figures are arithmetic on the published annual cell, before any supplement, stipend or deduction.
Salary Schedule B(1) of the SCEA collective bargaining agreement entered into 1 July 2025. Sumter publishes a range at each experience level rather than a single figure.
The contract states the ranges include retention supplements and signing bonuses and that they vary because of differences in performance-based payouts from year to year.
Contract length changes down the schedule: 203 days per year at 0 to 3 years of experience and 198 days per year from 4 years on.
Advanced degree supplements, based on a 196 day schedule and only in the area of certification: Masters $2,667, Specialist $3,667, Doctorate $3,667.
A new teacher is paid at the lowest Sumter salary for their experience level until prior wage and evaluation evidence is verified, and stays there for the year if verification does not arrive within 90 days.
- Soft spot: The document prints no upper figure at 0 and 1 years of experience, so those maxima are recorded as blank rather than guessed.
