Worked example as rendered: BA, step 1 = $60,320 a year, $5,026.67 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 2023-2026 agreement between the Lenape Valley Regional High School Board of Education and the Lenape Valley Education Association; 2025-26 is the last of its three years.
The document notes that the MA+30 column applies only to staff already on it and disappears from later guides, and that a teacher completing a 20th year at Lenape Valley receives a longevity payment folded into contractual base salary (Schedule G).
- Soft spot: The 2023-2026 agreement ended on June 30 2026 and no successor is posted, so 2025-26 is the newest guide the district publishes.
- Soft spot: Steps 10 and 11 as printed are not monotonic across lanes: at step 10 MA+18 is $82,430 while MA+30 is $79,580, and at step 11 MA+30 is $84,505 while MA+39 is $84,040. Those are the figures the guide prints and they are reproduced unchanged.
