'2023-2024 Professional Salary Schedule' from the LMEA salary schedule booklet covering the 2020-2024 collective bargaining agreement. The booklet also carries aide, secretary, custodial and other support schedules, which are excluded here.
The first two rows, LTS (1) and LTS (2), are long-term substitute steps; the parenthesised numbers are the district's internal step codes.
The Board approved a Memorandum of Agreement on July 29, 2024 setting new terms effective July 1, 2024 through June 30, 2027, but the updated grids are not published, so 2023-24 is the newest year on the public schedule.
- Soft spot: In the LTS (2) row the B+15 figure ($60,436) is higher than the B+15 figures on the rows above and below it; that is what the document prints.
- Soft spot: 2024-25 through 2026-27 schedules exist under the 2024 MOA but are not posted publicly (BoardDocs agenda items for the CBA and the MOA carry no public attachments).
