Worked example as rendered: BA Scale, step 0 = $53,040 a year, $4,420.00 a month spread over 12 months. Monthly and daily figures are arithmetic on the published annual cell, before any supplement, stipend or deduction.
From Appendix A - Compensation of the Livonia Public Schools / Livonia Education Association agreement dated June 23, 2025, effective August 16, 2025 through August 15, 2028. The 2026-27 column is reproduced here.
The BA Scale stops at step 13; the MA Scale runs to step 14, so BA is blank at step 14.
Excluded: the separate non-degree Schedule D, the additional-education stipends (BA extra hours, MA+15, MA+30, Ed. Spec., Doctorate), longevity payments at 16+ years, and the National Board Certification stipend.
The contract says annual salary is divided by 'the number of teacher days in a school year' and that the number may fluctuate year to year, so no contract day count is published.
