Worked example as rendered: BA, step 1 = $66,950 a year, $5,579.17 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-3, the third and final year of the 2021-2024 Morris Hills Regional District agreement; Schedules A-1 and A-2 are 2021-22 and 2022-23.
Longevity is paid outside the guide and begins after 15 years of Morris Hills service: $2,000 at 16-17 years, $2,500 at 18-19, $3,100 at 20-21, $3,900 at 22-23 and $6,800 at 24 or more.
Athletic trainers are placed on this teacher guide at the step closest to their actual salary.
Extra pay, coaching, secretarial and custodial guides in the same agreement are excluded.
Verified by a constant lane differential the parse did not assume: all fifteen rows run BA +2,500 to BA+30, +2,500 to MA and +7,500 to MA+30, and Schedules A-1 and A-2 for the two earlier years show the same three differentials.
- Soft spot: The posted agreement expired on 30 June 2024 and neither the district nor the association publishes a successor, so this guide is three school years old.
