Idaho has no statewide teacher salary schedule. The state funds a CAREER LADDER that pays an allocation per rung, and each district then bargains its own dollar schedule; this grid is the salary appendix of this district's negotiated master agreement.
Published by the Idaho School Boards Association, which posts the agreements districts send it. Not every district is covered and a successor agreement may already be in force locally.
