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 - 06/30/2026.
Bargained with Bogata EA.
The guide is printed inside the filed agreement as an image, so it was read off the page as rendered and every figure was then checked against that page.
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 BA and MA columns are the same figures in each of the three years of the 2023-2026 agreement; only the MA+30 column moves.
The MA+30 column was missed by the automatic read of the page and was transcribed from the rendered guide.
