Worked example as rendered: BA, step 0.5 = $54,831 a year, $4,569.25 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 West Islip Teachers Association agreement, published by the district as a standalone sheet headed 'YEAR 4 - 2%' for 2026-27.
Step 0.5 is the district's own label for the half-step below step 1. The sheet also explains a step 1A for new hires, computed by subtracting the step 1 to step 2 difference from step 1; that figure is not printed, so it is not included.
The last lane is printed as a stacked heading, EdD/PhD over MA75.
Teachers past step 24 share an additional $100,000 pool capped at $1,250 each; that is paid on top of the schedule.
- Soft spot: The top cell, step 24 in the EdD/PhD (MA75) column, is $160,100, just above the $160,000 ceiling this project uses as a generic sanity check. It is printed that way on the district's sheet and is normal for a Suffolk County district at the top of the schedule.
