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: 07/01/2026 - 06/30/2028.
Bargained with Deal 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 guide freezes two pairs of steps: 4-5 share one rate and 16-17 share one rate.
Year 1 of a two-year agreement; the 2027-28 guide is on the next page and has not started.
- Soft spot: Most step labels came back garbled from the scan; the labels published are the ones printed on the page.
- Soft spot: Step 2 in the MA+30 column reads 70,465 on the page; the text read of it returned 710,465. The figure published is the one printed in the agreement.
- Soft spot: Step 12 in the BA column came back empty from the text read of the page; it is printed there as 75,215, and that is the figure published.
