Worked example as rendered: BA, step 1 = $42,000 a year, $3,500.00 a month spread over 12 months. Monthly and daily figures are arithmetic on the published annual cell, before any supplement, stipend or deduction.
Article 6 of the Master Agreement between Monroe Public Schools Board of Education and the Monroe City Education Association MEA/NEA, August 16, 2025 to August 15, 2026, which prints a single grid headed '2025-2026 Salary Schedule'.
A one-page Extension Agreement signed June 22, 2026 extends that CBA for one year to August 15, 2027 without changing the salary schedule, so this grid also governs 2026-27; the district lists it as the 'Current Teacher Contract (Extended through August 15, 2027)'. The extension is at http://www.monroe.k12.mi.us/view/10104.pdf.
The extension provides for a re-open if the State of Michigan passes a budget that raises the district's per-pupil foundation allowance.
The BA lane stops at step 10, so BA is null for steps 11-15.
Appendix A-1 to A-4 additional compensation, coaching reimbursement and supplemental (instrumental/vocal) schedules are excluded.
- Soft spot: The document titles the grid 2025-2026 and no 2026-27 grid is published, so school_year is recorded as 2025-26 even though the same schedule is in force in 2026-27 under the extension.
- Soft spot: The contract states the daily rate is based on the number of duty days in the official work calendar but does not state that count in the parsed text, so work_days is null.
