Each additional year they get a step increase in addition to an association negotiated raise on those steps. Also, many have the Cadillac of healthcare plans and their retirement benefits are unbelievable. These benefits in costs equal about 35-50% of their pay.

There are also a lot of stipends to be had. 5k for a HC and 3K for an asst coach around here. I have no clue how that would end up breaking down hourly.
