The document prints five columns side by side: the state minimum salary schedule, the district's District of Innovation (uncertified) teacher scale for both 2023-2024 and 2024-2025, and the certified teacher scale for both years. The last column is the certified scale in force for 2024-2025.
Salaries are based on 10-month employment; new hires are capped at 30 years of experience.
- Soft spot: This is the most recent teacher schedule Roma ISD publishes. The district has since moved to a new CMS whose Compensation Plans page (https://www.romaisd.com/departments/compensation-plans) renders no documents at all, its sitemap contains no compensation page, and its payroll page carries only pay-date calendars. No 2025-2026 or 2026-2027 Roma ISD compensation plan could be found on the district site or in the Wayback Machine on 2026-09-08.
- Soft spot: Because the plan is two years old, the figures should not be presented as current-year pay.
