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: 07/01/2019 - 06/30/2023.
Bargained with Prospect Park TA.
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 2022-23. 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 Effective July 1, 2022 and is the last year of the 2019-2023 agreement. It starts at the foot of one page and finishes on the next.
The agreement footnotes the MA+30 column: it is deleted for teachers who were not on the column as of 24 June 2011.
- Soft spot: The agreement expired on 30 June 2023 and Prospect Park has filed no successor with PERC, so this is the newest guide on file.
- Soft spot: Step 15A in the MA+45 column came back empty from the text read of the page; it is printed there as 89,638, and that is the figure published.
