Worked example as rendered: BA, step 1 = $64,207 a year, $5,350.58 a month spread over 12 months. Monthly and daily figures are arithmetic on the published annual cell, before any supplement, stipend or deduction.
Exhibit D-4, headed "Earning Schedule Report For 07/01/2025 - 06/30/2026, Negotiated Step increase 2%". The agreement prints one exhibit per contract year, D-1 through D-4.
The four salary exhibits are sideways scans with no usable text layer. The figures were read from the rotated page images and then checked cell by cell against the three earlier years, which the agreement raises by 2% a year.
- Soft spot: Five cells could not be confirmed against an earlier year and are left blank: step 2 in MA+15 and MA+30, step 6 in BA+15, step 9 in BA+30 and step 15 in BA.
- Soft spot: The ninth column heading reads PHD-LESS on the scan; it is reproduced as printed.
- Soft spot: The top of the PHD column reaches $164,067, above the range usually seen on a teacher schedule; the figure is confirmed against the 2024-25 exhibit.
