Worked example as rendered: CL-1 Bachelors, step 1 = $53,923 a year, $4,493.58 a month spread over 12 months, $282.32 per work day on a 191-day year. Monthly and daily figures are arithmetic on the published annual cell, before any supplement, stipend or deduction.
The agreement between the Abington School District and the Abington Education Association runs July 1, 2025 to June 30, 2028 and was adopted April 22, 2025. This is its second year.
Steps are the contract's new step numbering; the source document also prints an 'Old Step' crosswalk column (old steps 3 to 15, including a 14.1) which is not part of the pay grid and is omitted here.
Article VIII sets the teacher year at not more than 191 days, of which not more than 184 are student days; in a year with weather closures teachers work 190 days, and teachers new to the district work up to 193.
- Soft spot: The 2026-27 grid is taken from the district's standalone salary-chart PDF because the posted contract PDF is missing that page: its printed page 35 is the 2025-2026 chart and page 36 is the 2027-2028 chart, with no 2026-2027 page in between. The standalone chart's 2025-2026 and 2027-2028 grids were compared cell for cell against the contract's own two charts and match exactly, which is what makes its 2026-2027 grid trustworthy.
- Soft spot: Lane labels are the full ones printed in the contract ('CL-1 Bachelors' and so on); the standalone chart heads the same columns with the bare codes CL-1 to CL-6.
