The payments: (i) Shall be in addition to any amounts prescribed in the applicable state minimum salary schedule; (ii) shall be paid in equal monthly installments; and (iii) shall be considered a part of the state minimum salaries for teachers.
NOTE: The purpose of this bill is to increase the state minimum salary increments for professional educators by adding an additional 6 years to each section of the schedule from AB to Doctorate. Each step would increase salaries by $465 in each category.
