Ohio has no statewide teacher salary schedule. Pay is bargained district by district, and this grid comes from the salary appendix of the district's current collective bargaining agreement as filed with the Ohio State Employment Relations Board.
Agreement term: 2025-07-01 to 2027-06-30.
Bargained with OEA SVEA.
The agreement labels this table 2026-27. A successor agreement may already be in force locally; the year shown is the year printed in the filed document.
- Soft spot: Lane labels were cleaned 2026-09-28 from OCR-garbled headers in the filed document (e.g. 'BA+l5' -> 'BA+15'); cells unchanged.
