Worked example as rendered: BA, step 4 = $73,289 a year, $6,107.42 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, Salary Guide Certified Instructional and Non-Instructional Staff, 2026-2027 school year, the final year of the agreement between the Orange Board of Education and the Orange Education Association for July 1 2024 to June 30 2027. The association posts the contract; the district's own site does not.
The guide starts at step 4; steps 1 to 3 no longer exist on it. Steps 10-12, 13a, 14a, 14b and 14c are the district's own step labels.
Longevity is paid outside the guide in all years: 3% of current salary after 16 years in Orange and a further 1% after 21 years. For employees hired on or after July 1 2005 the 16-year longevity is $1,800 instead.
Read from the agreement's text layer and checked cell by cell against the rendered page image.
