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: 07/01/2023 - 06/30/2027.
Bargained with Berlin Boro EA.
Read from the text layer of the PDF filed with PERC.
The agreement labels this guide 2023-24. A multi-year agreement prints one guide per year of its term; a successor agreement may already be in force locally.
Table caption in the agreement: Group A 2023-2024
- Soft spot: This guide is 3 years old. It is the most recent one that could be read: the district has filed newer agreements with PERC, but they are scans with no text layer and PERC holds no searchable version of them.
