Worked example as rendered: BA-0, step 3 = $50,912 a year, $4,242.67 a month spread over 12 months, $275.20 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 B, 'Oxford Education Association Salary Schedule 2 - 2026-2027, Hired after 1-1-2015', of the 2025-2029 OEA contract. Article 18 places all new hires on this schedule.
Steps 1 and 2 are blacked out on the 2026-27 page: the contract eliminates the lowest step each year of the agreement, so 2026-27 begins at step 3.
The contract also prints a legacy 'Salary Schedule 3' (BA / BA+18 / MA / MA+15 / MA+30 / EDSP / PHD) for pre-2015 hires and a separate 233-day Oxford Virtual Academy schedule; neither is included here.
The page states the teacher calendar is based on 185 paid teacher days, reinstatable to 189 at no additional compensation.
Teachers at step 20 for a second consecutive year receive an additional 2% above the grid.
- Soft spot: The Appendix B pages are low-resolution scanned images; the numbers were transcribed by eye and every lane checked for a constant per-step increment (BA-0 +1,994 / BA-18 +2,134 / MA-0 +2,274 / MA-30 +2,404 per step), which held across all 18 rows.
