Workbook titled "2026-2027 Whitfield County Schools Salary Schedules, Approved 26.06.22", effective as of July 1, 2026, 190 days.
The workbook keeps one sheet per certificate type; the TOTAL column of each sheet is merged here into a single grid.
The T1, T-2, BT-4, T-4 and BT-5 sheets stop at an open-ended "21+" / "21 and above" row; that published value is carried across years 21 to over-25, as the sheet defines it, so the grid stays rectangular against the T-5 to T-7 sheets which itemise years 21-25 and over 25.
