Worked example as rendered: BA, step 1 = $58,715 a year, $4,892.92 a month spread over 12 months. Monthly and daily figures are arithmetic on the published annual cell, before any supplement, stipend or deduction.
Schedule A of the 2021-2024 agreement, third and last year. Hammonton's newer 2024-2027 agreement is on file at PERC only as a one-page certification cover sheet signed in August 2026, with no agreement or salary appendix attached, so this is the newest guide the district has published.
A member holding a recognised master's degree in field receives a $375 stipend on top of the guide.
- Soft spot: The agreement is a scan. The guide was read off the page image and every cell was then checked against the guide's own construction, each lane being the BA figure times a fixed multiplier (1.015, 1.03, 1.045, 1.06, 1.077, 1.093, 1.11, 1.126). That check caught and corrected one misread digit at step 9, BA+45.
