Page 15 (Classroom Teacher Matrix) of the 2026-27 CHISD Compensation Plan approved May 18, 2026 with a June 5 update.
HB2 is the Texas House Bill 2 teacher retention amount; Bachelors Total is Base plus HB2, Masters Total is $1,000 above it and Doctorate Total $2,000 above it.
- Soft spot: The compensation plan is a 40-page Canva export with no text layer (129 MB); the matrix was transcribed from the rendered page image and re-read at 300 dpi. The raw file saved here is the extracted page 15 rather than the whole 129 MB plan.
- Soft spot: The Base column rises by $300 per step from step 2 to step 31 but step 32 prints $69,100 rather than $69,400; the value was re-read at 300 dpi and is as printed.
- Soft spot: The HB2 column holds allotment dollars, not salaries, so its values fall far below a normal teacher salary range.
