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.
Headed "New Hire Salary Placement Schedule" in the contract.
This is the placement schedule the contract publishes for teachers new to the corporation. Returning teachers are paid their prior-year salary plus the bargained increase, which the same contract sets out separately.
The schedule caps a new Bachelor's hire at $66,000 ($66,100 with the literacy endorsement) and a new Master's hire at $73,300 ($73,400 with it), which is why the Bachelor's columns stop at row T.
Gateway also reports this corporation's minimum full-time teacher salary as $47,000.
Filed with Gateway on 10/15/2025.
- Soft spot: Row P prints $64,400 in the "MA w/ Literacy Endorsement" column where the $100 spacing used everywhere else on the grid gives $63,400, and it repeats the figure printed on row Q. Transcribed as printed.
