Worked example as rendered: B, career ladder rung P1 = $53,402 a year, $4,450.17 a month spread over 12 months, $296.68 per work day on a 180-day year. Monthly and daily figures are arithmetic on the published annual cell, before any supplement, stipend or deduction.

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.

The rows are career-ladder rungs, not years of service: R1-R3 is the residency tier, P1-P10 professional and L1-L7 leadership.

Contract length: 180 days.

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.
