Delaware's statute publishes the state salary schedule as an index: each cell is a multiplier of the state base salary for a bachelor's degree at step 1 (index 1.00000). The base dollar amount is set in the annual appropriations act and is not part of section 1305, so no dollar figures are shown here.

Step 1 corresponds to 0 years of experience; the statute's 'Yrs of Exp.' column is step minus 1.

Districts add local salary supplements on top of the state schedule.

Soft spot: No effective date: the index table is codified statute and changes only when the General Assembly amends section 1305.

All Delaware districts, with enrollment and what is indexed, are on the Delaware page. Other statewide schedules: Alabama, Georgia, Hawaii, Mississippi, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, West Virginia.
