Doctorate and National Board certification pay is on the district's separate Miscellaneous Stipends schedule, not on this grid.
Deadlines for horizontal (column) movement are September 10, and February 10 for a newly completed degree.
The district states that steps do not necessarily reflect years of experience.
- Soft spot: Every figure on this 2026-2027 schedule is identical to the benchmarks MNEA published for Liberty for 2025-26, so the district appears to have carried the same grid forward.
