Schedule notes
From the Providence Teachers Union contract for 2024-2027, Appendix A, rates effective September 1, 2026 (after a 3.75% raise). Step 1 is printed as $50,155.735. Providence uses one base schedule plus flat degree add-ons (Appendix A-2.1). Master's figures are base plus $3,355, and doctorate figures are base plus $4,157; both are calculated from the published add-ons. Other add-ons: BA+30 $2,955 and MA+30 $3,757. National Board teachers get a $5,500 stipend. The district's own copy is a scan (https://resources.finalsite.net/images/v1754907142/providenceschoolsorg/gblfronmpjhcop6ucmzy/CBA-2024-2027-FINAL001611202508010942241.pdf), so the city's text copy was used. The contract sets a 181-day year.
