Titled Tulsa Public Schools 2025-2026 SALARY SCHEDULE TEACHERS and marked Approved 11-17-25; the district lists it as Certified Teachers on its compensation page.

The document prints two side-by-side grids on one page, the five degree lanes and the same five lanes with National Board Certification (NBC); both sets are kept as lanes above.

Not included in the grid: a career increment of $1,000 after 15, 20, 25, 30, 34 and 37 years of creditable service, half that amount when the anniversary falls in the first semester.

The schedule states that a teacher receiving an annual NBC bonus from the State Department of Education is not eligible for the NBC minimum salary increment, so the NBC lanes and the state bonus are alternatives.

A maximum of five years of prior active military service may be granted on the schedule, and since 2023-24 all newly hired teachers receive credit for all OSDE-verified in-state and out-of-state experience.

Candidates who meet certification requirements but hold no certificate yet are paid an apprentice rate of $40,000 until the certificate is issued.
