Worked example as rendered: 164 Days, step 0 = $60,268.36 a year, $5,022.36 a month spread over 12 months, $367.49 per work day on a 164-day year. Monthly and daily figures are arithmetic on the published annual cell, before any supplement, stipend or deduction.
From the 'Teacher' pay structure in the Community ISD 26-27 Compensation Plan. Lanes are contract lengths, not degree lanes: the base teacher contract is 164 days and the longer columns annualize the same daily rate.
The printed table also carries a Daily Rate column ($367.49 at step 0 rising to $473.34 at step 25+) that is not reproduced here because the other lanes are annual salaries.
Teachers are placed by total years of creditable service as defined by TEA regulations. Teachers with a master's degree in education or a related field receive $1,500 above the regular teacher salary.
Resident program teachers are paid $25,000, outside this grid.
- Soft spot: The 189-day and 208-day lanes run above the usual teacher-schedule ceiling (up to $98,454.72) because they annualize the same daily rate over a longer contract; they are the district's own printed figures.
