Worked example as rendered: BS Degree, step 0 = $55,536 a year, $4,628.00 a month spread over 12 months, $277.68 per work day on a 200-day year. Monthly and daily figures are arithmetic on the published annual cell, before any supplement, stipend or deduction.
These are TOTAL annual teacher salaries paid by Clinton City Schools (NC state base plus the district's local supplement), not supplement-only amounts.
Footer of the schedule reads '4/7/2026 * BASED ON A 200 DAY CONTRACT'; the schedule was approved by the Board of Education in April 2026 for FY 2026-27.
The PDF is a scan from a Canon copier with no text layer; values were read by OCR (tesseract --psm 4 and --psm 6 at 400 dpi) and the two reads agreed cell for cell.
The prior-year document (2025-2026 Salary Schedules) shows BS step 0 = 53,036, exactly 2,500 below the 2026-27 figure, which corroborates the OCR.
- Soft spot: Values were obtained by OCR of a scanned PDF rather than from a text layer.
- Soft spot: The schedule is silent on National Board (NBPTS) certification, so no NBPTS lane is recorded.
