Worked example as rendered: BA, benchmark Minimum (step 1) = $41,000 a year, $3,416.67 a month spread over 12 months. Monthly and daily figures are arithmetic on the published annual cell, before any supplement, stipend or deduction.
Benchmark figures only. MNEA publishes the minimum, middle and maximum salary of each lane from the district's 2025-26 certified salary schedule, not every step of the grid.
Middle is step 7 of the bachelor's lane and step 10 of the master's lane, so the two cells in the middle row are not the same step. Where a lane has fewer steps than that, the report repeats the maximum.
Bachelor's lane reaches its maximum at step 20; Master's lane reaches its maximum at step 26.
Highest non-doctorate salary anywhere on the schedule: $55,650.
Maximum salary on the whole schedule (last lane, last step): $55,650 over 30 steps.
The full schedule has 10 lanes; only the bachelor's and master's lanes are broken out here.
Missouri statute 163.172 sets a $40,000 minimum salary for a beginning teacher in 2025-26 and $46,000 for a full-time teacher with a master's degree and at least ten years of experience.
- Soft spot: Sourced from MNEA's statewide compilation of district-supplied schedules, not from the district's own posted PDF; the district's published schedule is the authority.
