New Jersey has no statewide teacher salary schedule and the state Department of Education publishes no collection of them. Pay is bargained district by district, and this guide comes from the salary appendix of the agreement the district filed with the New Jersey Public Employment Relations Commission.
Agreement term: 07/01/2022 - 06/30/2026.
Bargained with Berkeley Hgts EA.
The agreement is on file at PERC as a scan with no text layer. The guide was read off the scanned page and every figure was then checked against the page as rendered.
The agreement labels this guide 2025-26. A multi-year agreement prints one guide per year of its term; a successor agreement may already be in force locally.
The agreement runs to 30 June 2026, so 2025-2026 is the last year it prices.
Step A is printed with figures only in the BA+60, MA+30 and MA+60 columns.
A $750 longevity payment is made to employees with at least twenty years in the district; it is not part of the grid.
- Soft spot: Step 4 in the BA column came back empty from the text read of the page; it is printed there as 58,896, and that is the figure published.
- Soft spot: Step 9-11 in the MA+30 column reads 79,823 on the page; the text read of it returned 793,823. The figure published is the one printed in the agreement.
- Soft spot: Step 15 in the MA column reads 79,327 on the page; the text read of it returned 73,327. The figure published is the one printed in the agreement.
- Soft spot: Step A in the MA+60 column reads 126,147 on the page; the text read of it returned 426,147. The figure published is the one printed in the agreement.
