Schedule notes
2026-27 teacher schedule, Appendix A of the Meriden Federation of Teachers contract, 2026-2029, posted on the district's salary schedules and contracts page. Steps 1-3 are blank, so pay starts at step 4. The middle lane is 'Bachelor's Degree +30 or Master's Degree.' The contract has no printed doctorate column; it states Ph.D./Ed.D. holders receive $2,000 above the Sixth Year column, so doctorate figures here are the Sixth Year figure plus $2,000 (Sixth Year max $107,338).
