Some important notes and explanations:

For 2024-25, returning classroom teachers at NPA are receiving a 2% increase over their 2023-24 base salaries. New teachers replacing departing teachers may have different salaries due to years of experience, and thus the overall average increase does not perfectly match the standard increase for returning teachers.
