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 - 06/30/2024.
Bargained with Swedesboro-Woolwich 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 2023-24. 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 YEAR 5 2023-24, Swedesboro-Woolwich Teachers, the final year of the 2019-24 agreement.
Each step is printed with a second number in parentheses; the agreement says the guides in the next contract will be the numbers in parentheses. Step 4-5 is a frozen pair.
Longevity is paid on top of the guide and is not reflected in it: $600 after 15 years, $1,800 after 20, $2,400 after 25 and $2,800 after 30.
The same appendix carries a separate Child Study Team guide with MA, MA+15 and MA+30 columns; this record is the teachers' guide.
- Soft spot: Step 2 (2) in the BA column reads 53,434 on the page; the text read of it returned 153,434. The figure published is the one printed in the agreement.
