Worked example as rendered: BA, step 1-3 = $56,000 a year, $4,666.67 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-3 of the 1 June 2023 to 30 June 2026 agreement between the Westwood Regional Board of Education and the Westwood Education Association. The contract prints Schedules A-1, A-2 and A-3 for 23-24, 24-25 and 25-26 and this is the last of them.
Steps 1-3 is the district's own frozen-step label.
Checked arithmetically: on all fourteen rows BA+15 is exactly 800 above BA, BA+30 is 1,650 above, MA is 6,650 above, MA+15 is 7,750 above and MA+30 is 11,700 above.
- Soft spot: The agreement expires 30 June 2026 and the district's Board of Education site posts no successor, so this is the most recent guide published rather than a 2026-27 one.
