Final year of the 2024-2027 Rockaway Township Education Association agreement, headed SCHOOL YEAR 2026-2027.
Steps 13-14, 15-16, 17-18, 19-20 and 21-22 are the district's own frozen-pair step labels and are printed that way on the guide.
The agreement is a scan with no text layer, so the figures were read off the rendered page image and checked cell by cell against an independent OCR pass, then against the guide's own arithmetic: BA+15, BA+30, MA+15, MA+30, MA+45 and MA+60 each sit exactly $625 above the lane to their left at every step, MA sits $2,815 above BA+30, and PHD sits $1,250 above MA+60.
