Worked example as rendered: 2026-2027 Total Salary, 2026-2027 years of experience 0 = $63,500 a year, $5,291.67 a month spread over 12 months. Monthly and daily figures are arithmetic on the published annual cell, before any supplement, stipend or deduction.
Steps are the district's 2026-2027 years of experience. The document also prints each row's 2025-2026 years of experience and 2025-2026 salary, and the March 2026 1% and 2026-2027 4% pay increases that produced the new base; those working columns are not reproduced here.
Total Salary is the base plus the Local Teacher Allotment and the HB 2 Teacher Retention Allotment shown on the same row.
The document adds a $1,750 Master's Degree general stipend and a $3,500 Doctorate Degree general stipend on top of the schedule.
Step 0 shows only a total ($63,500); the district does not print a base or allotment for a first-year teacher.
- Soft spot: The Local Teacher Allotment and HB 2 Teacher Retention Allotment columns were separated by x-position; the PDF draws a duplicate shadow text layer, so the values were read from word coordinates rather than from a linear text dump.
