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: 07/01/2025 - 06/30/2030.
Bargained with Little Falls 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.
Steps 5 and 6 and steps 13 and 14 are frozen pairs on this guide and are printed as one row each.
The page carries the 2025-26 guide above the 2026-27 one; the agreement runs through 2029-30 and prints a guide for each year.
