Worked example as rendered: Sept. 1, 2026, step 1 = $54,192 a year, $4,516.00 a month spread over 12 months, $299.40 per work day on a 181-day year. Monthly and daily figures are arithmetic on the published annual cell, before any supplement, stipend or deduction.

Appendix A, section A-1 (Regular Schedule) of the WTU collective bargaining agreement covering September 1, 2024 to August 31, 2027.

The scale steps up twice inside each contract year, so 2026-27 has two published columns: 2.5 percent effective September 1, 2026 and a further 0.5 percent effective March 1, 2027. Both are recorded as columns here.

Warwick's grid has no degree lanes. Credentials are paid as flat advanced increments on top of the step (Appendix A-3, unchanged 2024-2027): 30 graduate hours beyond the bachelor's $3,165, Master's $3,584, Master's plus 30 hours $4,351, CAGS $4,487, Doctorate $4,769, and National Board certification $5,958, which stacks on top of any other advanced increment. Only one degree increment otherwise applies.

Longevity increments (Appendix A-2): $2,479 at 20 years, $2,815 at 25 years, $3,153 at 30 years, all requiring most of that service in Warwick.

Article 12-1.1: the school year is 181 days, with a 182nd stipend-compensated orientation day.

Supplementary coaching and extracurricular scales in Appendix B and the extended school services scale in Appendix C are excluded.
