Worked example as rendered: T1, years of creditable service 0,1,2 = $41,717 a year, $3,476.42 a month spread over 12 months. Monthly and daily figures are arithmetic on the published annual cell, before any supplement, stipend or deduction.

This is the state salary schedule, which the Georgia Department of Education describes as the state-funded base. Local boards of education set their own salary schedules and add local supplements on top of these amounts, so what a Georgia teacher is actually paid is usually higher.

The schedule is built off a base of $43,592.00, which is the T-4 step E amount; every other cell is a fixed percentage of the T-4, T-5 or T-6 amount, as printed in the column headings.

The document is 'FOR 10 MONTHS EMPLOYMENT' and prints an annual and a monthly figure in each cell. Only the annual figures are recorded here.

The salary step codes printed alongside the years bands are, in order: E, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, L1, L2, L3, L4, L5, L6.

The FY 2027 amounts are unchanged from the FY 2026 schedule; the base has stayed at $43,592.00.
