Worked example as rendered: BA, step 1 = $59,136 a year, $4,928.00 a month spread over 12 months. Monthly and daily figures are arithmetic on the published annual cell, before any supplement, stipend or deduction.
Appendix B of the 2025-2028 agreement, referenced at section 20.1. The agreement prints Appendix A for 2025-2026, Appendix B for 2026-2027 and Appendix C for 2027-2028.
The district runs a wide lane structure: ten bachelor's columns in five-credit steps to BA +45, then ten master's columns on the same pattern.
- Soft spot: The three printed years do not sit in a simple ratio to one another: some steps rise about 2% and others about 4% from one year to the next, and a few cells at steps 5 and 6 are slightly lower in 2027-28 than in 2026-27. That is how the sheets are printed; the step structure is re-anchored between years.
