A regionally accredited university must have awarded the Degree. Check out the full Pay Schedule Below.

Doctorate Degree: 

The Alachua County School District will pay you $6,500 annually for a Doctorate. This results in $171,589 over a 25 Year Career of Additional income. This makes it worth getting your Doctorate when planning to work in Alachua County as a teacher because $6,500+ a year will most likely pay for the cost of a doctorate but may not be worth the stress depending on the years you are planning to work after getting the raise for the degree( This is my opinion). An employee with a master’s Degree and a Doctorate or equivalent degree shall receive the Doctorate differential only. A regionally accredited university must have awarded a degree.
