Worked example as rendered: Base Salary, step 0 (non-certified) = $59,500 a year, $4,958.33 a month spread over 12 months. Monthly and daily figures are arithmetic on the published annual cell, before any supplement, stipend or deduction.
The document heads the salary column "Base Salary 2026-2027" and prints a third column, a flat $4,200 district benefits contribution ($350/month: $125 that must be used for TRS medical insurance plus $225 for qualifying benefits). Total Compensation Package is base salary plus that $4,200.
Step 0** in the document is non-certified teacher pay with 0 years of experience and is labelled here "0 (non-certified)".
- Soft spot: The district lists this file as its "2026 - 2027 Melissa ISD Teacher Pay Scale" but the stored filename is 2025-2026_Classroom_Teacher_Salary_Schedule.pdf. The document's own salary column header reads 2026-2027, which is what is recorded.
