Schedule notes

2026-27 single-lane Teacher Compensation Model (steps 101-132, Teacher column). A master's degree or National Board certification is required to move beyond step 118, so the bachelor column stops at step 118. New hires are placed by experience, degree and comparison with current staff, and an initial master's adds two steps, so no separate master's starting salary is published (master_start null). Enrollment is Wisconsin DPI certified 2025-26 enrollment (district total).
