With the new schedule going into effect, it will mean general in- creases, but no teacher will im- mediately receive the maximum al- lowable in the various categories. The category system makes allow- ance for the qualifications of the individual teacher, and has proved satisfactory for the most part, as well as providing an incentive for the teacher to improve on his cate- gory through summer courses.
