Worked example as rendered: Salary, step 1 = $47,000 a year, $3,916.67 a month spread over 12 months. Monthly and daily figures are arithmetic on the published annual cell, before any supplement, stipend or deduction.
Appendix A of the Dunkirk Teachers' Association agreement prints one salary column per contract year, 2022-23 through 2025-2026, against a single step ladder. The 2025-2026 column is reproduced here as the current schedule.
Dunkirk does not pay by education lane: the schedule is a single scale, and a master's degree is a flat $725 differential rather than a column. Per-hour work is $55.00.
Teachers who reach the top of the ladder move to an off-step rate, which the agreement prints separately at $90,500.00 for a first year off step in 2025-2026, rising to $95,325.00 in a fourth year. Those are not steps on the schedule and are not included here.
Verified by reading the rendered page image at 300 dpi against the PDF's own text layer. The text layer is unreliable on this page: it renders $82,500.00 as $82.500.00 and $63,200.00 as $63 200.00, and the image settles both.
