Worked example as rendered: T1, step 0, 1, 2 (E) = $44,295 a year, $3,691.25 a month spread over 12 months, $233.13 per work day on a 190-day year. Monthly and daily figures are arithmetic on the published annual cell, before any supplement, stipend or deduction.
Approved 06-18-2026. Scanned document with no text layer; transcribed from the page image.
The district base annual salary is recorded. Each cell also prints a district base hourly rate and, on a third line, a flat local supplement ($1,750 at step E rising to $2,650 at the top of the T7 lane) that is paid on top of these amounts.
No experience credit is given on the BT4 lane, so it is flat.
- Soft spot: Transcribed from an image. Cross-checked twice: against a tesseract OCR pass of the same page, and against the printed hourly rate multiplied by 1,520 hours (190 days x 8 hours), which reproduces every annual figure to within rounding.
- Soft spot: The 190-day/8-hour contract length is inferred from that hourly-rate arithmetic; the sheet itself does not print a day count.
