Worked example as rendered: 26-27 Base Pay, years of experience 0 = $60,500 a year, $5,041.67 a month spread over 12 months. Monthly and daily figures are arithmetic on the published annual cell, before any supplement, stipend or deduction.
'Teacher Pay Scale' is the total the district pays: base pay plus the state House Bill 2 Teacher Retention Allotment (TRA). The TRA is $2,500 at 3-4 years of experience and $5,000 at 5 or more; steps 0-2 receive none, so those cells are blank in the document.
The schedule is for the 2026-2027 school year only and covers full-time certified classroom teachers on a ten (10) month contract.
Degree stipends are paid on top of the schedule: $1,000 per year for a master's degree and $1,500 per year for a doctorate, in each case only when the degree is in the subject area taught and from an accredited university.
- Soft spot: Base pay is not monotonic (it dips at step 3 and again at step 5) because the district lowered base pay where the state allotment begins; the 'Teacher Pay Scale' total does rise at every step.
- Soft spot: The document does not state contract days, so work_days is null.
