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: 07/01/2021 - 06/30/2025.
Bargained with Toms River EA.
Read from the text layer of the PDF filed with PERC.
The agreement labels this guide 2024-25. A multi-year agreement prints one guide per year of its term; a successor agreement may already be in force locally.
The agreement prints one page per degree lane, each with a column for every year of the 2021-2025 term. The guide published here is the 2024/25 column: BA from page 58, BA+30 from page 59, MA from page 60, MA+30 from page 61 and DR (Doctorate) from page 62 of the filed PDF.
The agreement notes that step 22 is the top guide step and that no member moves to off-guide status. Service increments of $200 (5 years), $300 (15), $400 (20), $1,000 (25 and two years on the top step), $750 (30) and $750 (35) are paid on top of the guide and are not part of it; from 2024-2025 the 30-year and 35-year increments rise to $1,000.
Separate off-guide rates are printed under the MA and MA+30 tables for members already off guide; they are not steps on this guide.
Registered nurses are paid on the Bachelor's guide less $5,000.
- Soft spot: The five lanes are printed on five separate pages of the agreement (pages 58 to 62 of the filed PDF), so each lane's column was read and checked against its own rendered page.
