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: 07/01/2021 - 06/30/2024.
Bargained with Cranford 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 2023-24. A multi-year agreement prints one guide per year of its term; a successor agreement may already be in force locally.
Steps 12, 13 and 14 are one frozen step on the guide, printed as "12-14".
Steps 22 and 23 exist only in the higher columns; the cells the guide prints as a dash are left empty here.
The guide is the last year of the 2021-2024 agreement; the note under it reads "All move one step on guide."
