<p>I don’t understand your question. There are steps in teacher’s pay. A new teacher will start at step 1 regardless of pay and will move up a step or have a cost of living increase each year unless there is a freeze because of the economic situation. However at each step, there is a salary for teachers with a BA/BS, another salary for teachers with a MA etc. So even though teachers may have the same experience and be on the same step, they don’t necessarily have the same pay, it depends on their degree.</p>
