Worked example as rendered: Salary, step A = $37,500 a year, $3,125.00 a month spread over 12 months. Monthly and daily figures are arithmetic on the published annual cell, before any supplement, stipend or deduction.
Read from the salary appendix of the district-association agreement on file with the Empire Center (contract term 1/1/2020 to 6/30/2024), page 21 of the PDF.
The agreement prints one block of columns per school year side by side on the page; this page reproduces the 2023-24 block.
- Soft spot: The lettered step column comes off the PDF with "0", "p", "s", "u", "w", "y", "z"; the surrounding letters fix the run, so it is published as "O", "P", "S", "U", "W", "Y", "Z".
