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: 07/01/2024 - 06/30/2028.
Bargained with Stillwater 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.
The guide starts at step 0 and ends with three longevity steps the district labels L1, L2 and L3.
The agreement runs 2024-2028; Year 3 is the guide in force for the current school year and a 2027-28 guide is also printed.
- Soft spot: At step 15 the BA+15 column is 3,400 above BA where every other step is 2,400 above it, and MA is 1,400 above BA+15 where every other step is 2,400 above it. Both figures were checked against the page as rendered and are printed that way in the agreement.
