Worked example as rendered: BACH, step 1 = $41,000 a year, $3,416.67 a month spread over 12 months, $213.54 per work day on a 192-day year. Monthly and daily figures are arithmetic on the published annual cell, before any supplement, stipend or deduction.
Appendix “B” of the 2025-2030 collective bargaining agreement between the Baldwin-Whitehall School District and the Baldwin-Whitehall Education Association (BWEA), July 1, 2025 - June 30, 2030.
The agreement prints five annual grids (Appendix A 2025-26 through Appendix E 2029-30); this is the 2026-27 grid.
Article IX states the annual contract salaries are based on 192 days for professional employees and 195 days for temporary professional employees and first-year employees new to the district.
Extracurricular, department chair and event-management compensation (Appendices F-I) are excluded.
- Soft spot: Step 1 is printed as a flat $41,000 across every column, below step 1a; that is how the agreement prints it, not a parsing error.
