The document prints a third, non-numeric column 'Updates to Pay' describing each row's change: no change at step 0, 3% at steps 1-2, +$4,000 at steps 3-4 and +$8,000 from step 5 up. It is not captured as a lane because it holds text, not dollars.
Teacher interns working on certification are paid $40,175 until certification is earned, except for increases due to House Bill 2.
Updated 5/2025.
- Soft spot: The current-year column is headed 'DRAFT 2025-2026 Salary Schedule'; Pampa ISD still publishes this file as its Teacher Pay Scale as of 2026-09-08 and has posted no 2026-27 replacement.
- Soft spot: The prior-year (2024-2025) column is kept as its own lane exactly as printed.
