Teacher Salary Information

Salary Increases Under the QEO

New versus Experienced Teachers
Verona as an Example

NOTES: '96-'97 is a new salary schedule. A "new" teacher in the BA lane received both a step increase and the per cell increase associated with the new schedule. Teachers at step 15, however, only received the per cell increase associated with the new salary schedule because they already were at the maximum step.

This district has 295.5 FTE (full-time equivalent) teachers.
Of this, 131 positions are at the maximum step in their respective lanes.
Sixty teachers are at the maximum step in the MA+30 lane, which is the highest lane for the district.

Inflation has been running just under 3% annually for the last three years.

Senior teachers are penalized the most under the QEO. They receive significantly lower increases in pay than those who are able to gain annual step increases.
