Idaho career-ladder matrix: R cells are the Residency rung, P cells the Professional rung and AP cells the Advanced Professional rung. Residency cells R1-R3 are paid on the base column only.
The same PDF also prints a separate 'Transitional 2026-2027 Salary Matrix' for steps 10-13 with columns MA / BA+36, MA+12 / BA+48, MA+24 / BA+60 and MA+36 / ES-DR, running from $56,300 to $72,686. Those cells are not reproduced here.
Extra-duty pay, stipends and benefits are not included.
- Soft spot: The district leaves the first salary column of the matrix without a heading; it is labelled BA here on the strength of the adjacent BA+24 and Masters columns.
- Soft spot: The document does not state the number of contract days, so no per-day figure is available.
