The School Board of Hillsborough County Public Schools (hereinafter referred to as “the Board”) and the
Hillsborough Classroom Teachers Association (hereinafter referred to as “HCTA”) agree to the following
proposed salary agreement:
1. All eligible teachers on the grandfathered performance scales E or G shall advance to the applicable
level on that schedule based on creditable years of service, retroactive to July 1, 2014.
2. All eligible teachers on grandfathered scales A or B shall advance one level, retroactive to July 1,
2014. All eligible teachers currently on Level 28 will receive a 2 percent salary adjustment to be paid
half in December and half in March. This adjustment shall terminate June 30, 2015.
3. All eligible psychologists on the current Psychologist Scale shall advance one level, retroactive to
July 1, 2014. All eligible psychologists currently on level 18 will receive a 2 percent salary adjustment
to be paid half in December and half in March. This adjustment shall terminate June 30, 2015.
4. There will be a period for teachers to opt in to the performance salary scales E or G from October
6—October 24, 2014. Any teacher who opts in to the E or G scales during this time will receive their
new salary retroactive to July 1, 2014.
5. Instructional performance pay earned during the 2014-2015 school year, which will be paid on or
after October 15, 2015, will be: Level 4--$1900; Level 5--$2900.
6. Eligible National Board Certified Teachers shall receive a $1,000 payment for the completion of ten
(10) hours of approved mentoring and/or for conducting approved training. To be eligible, the NBCT
must hold an active NB certification and receive an effective or highly effective rating. After
submission and verification of hours, payment shall be made on or about December 1 or May 1.

1 and levels will be renumbered accordingly. Grades 12 and 13, which were previously negotiated
out, shall be permanently deleted from the scale. The new ESP scale is appended as Attachment A-1.
The parties will continue to consider scale compression in the future as we are mutually committed
to providing a living wage for all employees.
