Sorry, at the top end of the salary grid.

This is before the big retro pay I believe, though I could be wrong.

I think the columns correspond to additional education/professional certifications?

Really? My daughter has taught for a Catholic board in Ontario for the last five years and makes nowhere near that.

Plus teachers usually aren't paid in the summer.

I realize that. And Czech_pivo's post mentioned the salary over a 40 week work year.

Here’s the grid for Ottawa

An "A4 teacher" is an Ontario teacher who has reached the highest pay category, Category A4, through the Qualifications Evaluation Council of Ontario (QECO). This category is achieved by meeting specific educational requirements, which typically include a four-year undergraduate degree with a B average or higher and an Honour Specialist, or by accumulating additional post-degree qualifications like AQ courses and Specialist certificates.

• Highest category:
  A4 is the top category in the QECO system, signifying the teacher has met the most advanced educational criteria for salary purposes.
  
  
• Initial placement:
  New teachers are usually placed at a lower level, often Category A3, with A4 being the goal of accumulating more qualifications.
  
  • A four-year undergraduate degree: A four-year degree with first or second-class standing plus an Honour Specialist qualification can lead to A4.
    
    
  • Additional qualifications (AQs):Teachers can earn A4 by completing a certain number of AQ courses (such as five) and a three-part Specialist AQ in one subject area.
    
    
  • Master's or Doctoral degree: A master's or doctoral degree can also help a teacher reach a higher category.

Is this elementary or high school? Maxing it out with just an honours undergrad is surprising.
