Worked example as rendered: BA, step 1 = $53,572 a year, $4,464.33 a month spread over 12 months, $289.58 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.
Appendix A, '2025-2026 Wage Scale', of the master agreement between the Northville Education Association and the Northville Public Schools Board of Education, 2025-2027.
The scale runs in half steps from 1 to 16, exactly as printed.
The 2025-2026 wage scale is the newest UNCONDITIONAL grid in the agreement. For 2026-2027 the contract prints TWO alternative scales, 'Primary Trigger' and 'Enhanced Trigger', and Article VI makes which one applies depend on a General Fund Balance formula, so the 2026-27 rate cannot be determined from the document.
The calendar appendix describes 180 instructional days plus conference obligations 'for the total equivalent of 185 days'; work_days is that 185.
- Soft spot: The agreement is a scan with an OCR text layer that garbles some figures (for example step 8 BA on the 2026-27 page extracts as 'S7a,i21'), so this grid was transcribed from the page rendered at 220 dpi (PDF page 70). Every one of the 155 transcribed values was then confirmed to appear literally in the OCR text layer of the same page.
- Soft spot: Appendix A also footnotes the 2025-26 scale as subject to the same General Fund Balance triggers, but only one 2025-26 table is printed.
