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: 07/01/2020 - 06/30/2023.
Bargained with Demarest 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 2022-23. A multi-year agreement prints one guide per year of its term; a successor agreement may already be in force locally.
Steps 8, 9 and 10 are one frozen step on the guide and steps 11 and 12 are another; they are printed as "8-10" and "11-12".
This is the last year of the 2020-2023 agreement, the newest guide the district has on file with PERC.
