Worked example as rendered: BA, step 1 = $67,500 a year, $5,625.00 a month spread over 12 months. Monthly and daily figures are arithmetic on the published annual cell, before any supplement, stipend or deduction.
Schedule A, Instructional Salary Guide 2026-27, the final year of the agreement covering September 1 2024 to August 31 2027 for instructional members. The district's own website publishes no teachers' agreement; this is the copy the association posts.
Steps 2-3 and 12-13 are the district's own frozen-pair step labels and are printed that way on the guide.
Longevity is paid outside the guide: $2,000 at 30 years and $2,500 at 35 years.
Read from the agreement's text layer and checked against the guide's own arithmetic: BA+15 sits exactly $1,000 above BA and PHD exactly $1,000 above MA+30 at every one of the 19 steps, and the same two identities hold in the 2024-25 and 2025-26 guides printed on the two preceding pages.
