Worked example as rendered: B.A., step 0 = $45,671 a year, $3,805.92 a month spread over 12 months, $240.37 per work day on a 190-day year. Monthly and daily figures are arithmetic on the published annual cell, before any supplement, stipend or deduction.
Article XXXV of the agreement between the Toledo board of education and the Toledo Federation of Teachers, the grid headed Effective July 1, 2025.
The agreement dates its schedules by effective date rather than by school year. It prints three teacher grids: Effective July 1, 2024, Effective July 1, 2025 and Effective January 1, 2027. The July 1, 2025 grid is the one in force at the start of the 2026-27 school year.
The January 1, 2027 successor grid leaves steps 0 and 1 unchanged and raises every other cell.
The 190-day work year is stated in the article on holidays, which counts the paid holidays as part of the 190 days of the teacher's work year.
The B.A. lane is frozen at the step 15 rate through step 19, which is how the document prints it.
Not included in the grid: the separate career technology schedules, the paraprofessional and teacher assistant scales, or the continuing education unit payments described in the same article.
- Soft spot: Toledo publishes by effective date, not school year. This grid took effect on July 1, 2025 and remains in force through December 31, 2026, so school_year is recorded as 2025-26 even though the rates also cover the first half of 2026-27.
- Soft spot: The district's own collective bargaining agreements page is behind a staff login; the same PDF is linked publicly from the Toledo Federation of Teachers contracts page, which is recorded as the landing URL.
