Common use of Basic Salary Schedule Clause in Contracts

Basic Salary Schedule. 11.1 The accepted standard of professional preparation for employment shall be a Bachelor's Degree or its equivalent. 11.2 When a professional employee obtains, or anticipates earning credits which will affect their track placement on the salary schedule, the employee must notify the Superintendent by November 1st for budgeting purposes for the following fiscal year. The change of track will take place with the first payroll in the following month after official transcript documentation is received that verifies the number of credits earned or degree awarded. There will be no penalty for anticipating a track change and not obtaining the track change. 11.3 Professional employees who are “off-step” who obtain the necessary credits or degree to change track will receive the track increment salary increase. In the case of a track change to Masters +15, Masters +30 or Masters +45, the professional employee will receive the “off-step” plus the track increment salary increase. 11.4 Placement on the salary schedule of experienced professional employees entering the District shall be based on degree status and years of teaching experience before entering this District. These factors shall be assessed by the Superintendent and School Board, and this shall serve as the basis for placing an incoming professional employee on an appropriate step on the Salary Scale. 11.5 No incoming professional employee will be placed on the scale at a higher salary than that of a professional employee presently in the system with equivalent training and experience. 11.6 The salary schedule covering the professional employees of the Inter-Lakes School District will be determined by the Basic Salary Schedule provided in Appendices A, B, and C. 11.7 Any professional employee employed by the District during the 2019/2020 school year at Step 10 and beyond Step 10 of the salary schedule will be entitled to the “off step” salary adjustment negotiated.
