Worked example as rendered: BA, step Y(6) = $62,252 a year, $5,187.67 a month spread over 12 months. Monthly and daily figures are arithmetic on the published annual cell, before any supplement, stipend or deduction.
Ten-month scale for teachers and other exempt employees represented by TABCO, effective July 1, 2026.
Steps are lettered and numbered together on the scale, from Y(6) at the bottom to A(30) at the top; the published scale starts at step 6.
Only the annual columns are reproduced; the PDF also prints a biweekly column beside each degree column and states that the annual salary is divided by 21.4 to obtain the biweekly amount.
The BA column is frozen at 75,019 from step P(15) onward.
BCPS publishes a separate 12-month TABCO scale and a TABCO EDA scale; neither is included here.
- Soft spot: The scale does not state contract days, so work_days is null.
- Soft spot: The PDF labels only the step column; 'Degree' is used here as the lane label for the BA/MA/MA30/MA60/DOC columns.
