Annual salary
$41,601
Per month (12)
$3,466.75

Worked example as rendered: Bachelor's Degree, year of experience 0 = $41,601 a year, $3,466.75 a month spread over 12 months. Monthly and daily figures are arithmetic on the published annual cell, before any supplement, stipend or deduction.

The schedule states: 'Beginning with the 2026-2027 school year, certified personnel, as defined in 70 O.S. 26-103, in the public schools of Oklahoma shall receive in salary and/or fringe benefits not less than the amount specified in the following schedule.' It is a minimum; districts adopt their own salary schedules and may pay above it.

When determining the minimum salary, 'fringe benefits' means only the employee's share of retirement, if paid by the district.

The National Board Certification columns are for teachers who applied for and/or received National Board Certification after June 30, 2013.

Add-ons printed on the schedule: Career/Technology Ag teacher is minimum salary plus $2,600 a year on a 12 month contract; other Career/Tech teacher is minimum salary plus $2,200 a year on a 10 month contract; special education teacher is minimum salary plus 5% above the prevailing wage paid teachers of children who are nondisabled in the same district.

No teacher is granted credit for more than five years of active duty military service or out-of-state or out-of-country teaching experience for state salary increment purposes, though local boards may credit more years on their own schedules.

The schedule does not apply to teachers in postretirement employment with an Oklahoma public school who are still drawing a monthly retirement benefit.

The authority cited on the document is 70 O.S. section 18-114.15.
