Worked example as rendered: New Hire Starting Base Salary, years of experience 0 = $53,500 a year, $4,458.33 a month spread over 12 months. Monthly and daily figures are arithmetic on the published annual cell, before any supplement, stipend or deduction.
Total New Hire Compensation is the base salary plus the retention allotment column.
At years 0 through 2 the allotment is labelled a $2,500 HISD local contribution rather than a state Teacher Retention Allotment.
- Soft spot: The Teacher Retention Allotment column holds $2,500 to $5,000, a supplement rather than a salary, so its cells fall far below a normal teacher-salary range. The salary figures are the first and third columns.
