Schedule notes
190-day teacher schedules AT1, AT2 and AT3 (licensure Levels 1-3), each with degree lanes. Starting pay is AT1 step 1; bachelor's maximum is the top of AT2's BA lane (step 52); master's and doctorate maximums are the top of AT3. AT2's header shows a duplicate 'MA+15' label, so its last column was read as the doctorate lane.
