ARTICLE VI

PAY AND ALLOWANCE

6.0 The regular rate of pay for each position in the bargaining unit shall be in accordance with the rates established for each class as provided for in Appendix A, which is attached hereto and by reference incorporated as a part of this Agreement. The regular rate of pay shall include any shift differential and/or longevity increment required to be paid under this Agreement.

6.1

Salary/Appendix A:

The Agency makes the following proposed revisions to the salary schedule:

 The 2021-2022 salary schedule will be revised as set forth in Exhibit A, retroactive to January 1, 2022.

 The 2022-2023 salary schedule will be revised as set forth in Exhibit B, effective July 1, 2022.

 The 2023-2024 salary schedule will be revised as set forth in Exhibit C, effective July 1, 2023.

This concludes salary negotiations for the 2021-2022 school year.

Article 6.1, Salary, remains subject to negotiations for the 2022-2023 and 2023-2024 school years. Thus, this proposal does not preclude the Agency and CSEA from making salary proposals in the 2022-2023 and 2023-2024 negotiation cycles. Any negotiated percentage salary increase for the 2022-2023 school year shall be added to the 2022-2023 salary schedule attached as Exhibit B. In such an instance, the 2022-2023 salary schedule, attached as Exhibit B, shall be revised to reflect any salary increase negotiated for the 2022-2023 school year. Any negotiated percentage salary increase for the 2023-2024 school year shall be added to the 2023-2024 salary schedule, attached as Exhibit C, or the revised 2022-2023 salary schedule, if the 2022-2023 negotiated salary increase exceeds the attached 2023-2024 salary schedule (Exhibit C). In such an instance, the 2023-2024 salary schedule, attached as Exhibit C, shall be revised to reflect any salary increase negotiated for the 2023-2024 school year.

Any salary reductions negotiated by member Districts effective the 2022-2023 or 2023-2024 school years, shall be reflected in the 2022-2023 or 2023-2024 salary schedules.
