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 - 06/30/2028.
Bargained with Cranbury 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 2026-27. A multi-year agreement prints one guide per year of its term; a successor agreement may already be in force locally.
The agreement runs from July 1, 2023 to June 30, 2028 and prints a guide for each year; this is the table it labels Year 4, July 1, 2026 to June 30, 2027. The Year 3 guide sits above it on the same page.
Cranbury letters its steps A through S rather than numbering them.
