Indiana has no statewide teacher salary schedule. Pay is bargained corporation by corporation, and this grid comes from the salary appendix of the teacher contract this corporation filed with the state under IC 20-29.
Indiana's 2011 bargaining law bars paying on degree and experience alone, so many corporations letter their rows instead of numbering them by years of service and name their columns after endorsements rather than credit hours.
Table 2 of the contract, headed "DeKalb County Central United School Corporation Salary Table 2025-2026". A 2026-27 table on the same pattern runs $49,250 to $86,000.
One 160-level ladder rather than a degree grid; the levels are placement steps, not years of service.
Gateway also reports this corporation's minimum full-time teacher salary as $46,500.
