Schedule notes
District-posted 2026-27 Certified Salary Schedule PDF (steps 0-30). Enrollment is NCES 2023-24 (7,181). Bachelor = BS lane (flat at $58,323 from step 12 on); master = plain MS lane; doctorate = PhD/EdD/Ed.S lane (printed as PhD/EdD, header also lists Ed.S). Other lanes (BS+15/+30, MS+15/+30/+45) exist and are not shown here. Reviewer: doctorate left null because the top lane is PhD/EdD/Ed.S (shared with Ed.S), not a doctorate-only lane; its top printed value is $97,508.
