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: 07/01/2024 - 06/30/2029.
Bargained with Middlesex 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 is headed Appendix A, Certificated Staff Salary Guides, and the agreement prints one table per contract year; the table published here is the one the agreement labels YEAR 3: 2026-2027, which sits below the 2025-2026 table on the same page.
The printed guide also carries a Nurse column to the left of BA. It is not a teachers' lane and is not reproduced here.
Step 4 exists only on the base-year and Year 1 tables; the 2026-2027 table starts at step 5. Step 17A is the district's own label for the step between 17 and 18.
- Soft spot: Step 14 in the BA column reads 76,778 on the page; the text read of it returned 716,778. The figure published is the one printed in the agreement.
