Worked example as rendered: New Hire Salary, years of experience TIR = $58,500 a year, $4,875.00 a month spread over 12 months, $312.83 per work day on a 187-day year. Monthly and daily figures are arithmetic on the published annual cell, before any supplement, stipend or deduction.
From the DeSoto ISD Compensation Manual 2025-2026. The schedule covers teachers, librarians, registered nurses, speech language pathologist assistants, occupational therapy assistants, instructional specialists, G/T specialists and ARD facilitators; the annual figures shown are the 187-day teacher amounts.
The manual publishes a matching daily-rate column, which is the annual figure divided by 187 days; only the annual column is reproduced here.
The 'TIR' step is Teacher of Residence; the difference in salary funds a stipend for the mentor teacher.
- Soft spot: A companion page in the same manual prints a '25-26 Proposed Salary' column whose totals differ from this table at several steps (for example step 8: $65,400 there vs $65,900 here).
- Soft spot: The daily rate printed for step 29 ($371.37) does not match the annual figure; every other row does.
