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: 07/01/2022 - 06/30/2027.
Bargained with Mt Ephraim 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.
12A and 13A are extra steps the district prints between steps 12, 13 and 14.
Longevity is paid above the guide and is not part of the table: an additional 1,000 a year at 25 or more years of service in the district.
Year 5 is the last year of the 2022-2027 agreement.
