Worked example as rendered: BA, step 0 = $51,053 a year, $4,254.42 a month spread over 12 months, $275.96 per work day on a 185-day year. Monthly and daily figures are arithmetic on the published annual cell, before any supplement, stipend or deduction.
'FEA SALARY SCHEDULE (185 Days), 2026-2027', Appendix B of the 2025-2027 master contract between the Farmington Board of Education and the F.E.A., MEA/NEA.
The contract prints the lane codes B1, B2, B3, B4, M1, M2, M3, M4, E1 and D1 beneath the lane names.
Half steps are real: teachers advance a half step for at least 90 days of teaching in the previous year and a full step for at least 135 days.
Excluded: the separate 210-day SCI/SXI schedule, Appendix B-1 special assignments and the ancillary staff schedule in Appendix D.
- Soft spot: Every 2026-27 cell is exactly 1.03 times the corresponding 2025-2026 cell except the DR lane at step 9: the document prints $91,945 where 1.03 x the printed 2025-2026 figure of $88,830 would be $91,495. The value is reproduced as printed; it looks like a digit transposition in the source document.
