1st grade ELA Teacher - IDEA Yukon Academy (Immediate Opening)
About the role
with that paragraph. - Responsibilities: we have "What You’ll Do -- Accountabilities" list of duties. Also earlier "Responsibilities What You’ll Do -- Accountabilities". So we can put that underResponsibilities
with a- list.
- Requirements: we have Service Record Requirement, plus maybe "Education: Bachelor’s Degree ... required", "Experience: Experience in a K-12 classroom setting (strongly preferred)", "Licenses or Certifications: Teachers of record for students in K-3 must possess appropriate Reading Academies certification ...", "Bilingual certification strongly preferred, content and ESL certification preferred (not required)". Also "High level of content-area proficiency as evidenced by teaching certification, field of study, or work-experience (strongly preferred)". Those are qualifications/requirements. We can put under
Requirements
with list. - Qualifications: maybe overlapping with Requirements. But we can separate: Qualifications could be education, experience, certifications. However we already used Requirements for those. Could instead put Qualifications for education/experience/certifications, and Requirements for service record? But we need to follow allowed headings; we can choose to have either Requirements or Qualifications, not both if thin. The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could combine education/experience/certifications/service record into one Requirements section. Then we could have Qualifications for "High level of content-area proficiency..." maybe but that's similar. Better to have one Requirements section covering all. - Skills: we have "Knowledge And Skills" section: Knowledge of core academic subject assigned and ability to pass an IDEA content assessment; Knowledge of curriculum and instruction; Ability to instruct students and manage student behavior; Strong organizational, communication, and interpersonal skills; Ability to adjust and adapt to a multitude of situations in the school environment. That's skills. - Benefits: we have "What We Offer" includes compensation, benefits, etc. We have separate Pay and Benefits sections allowed. We have compensation details: starting teacher salary $63,500, stipends $500-$4,000, performance-based compensation, additional hourly compensation for after school tutoring or Saturday school. That's pay. So we can havePay
with that info. - Benefits: we have "Other Benefits" list: comprehensive benefits plan, paid family leave, tuition reimbursement, employer-paid mental/behavioral health, dental/vision, disability, life insurance, parenting benefits, flexible spending, generous vacation, referral bonuses, professional development, 403(b), relocation allowance if applicable. That's benefits. - Schedule: we have "Minimum of 40+ hours spent at school per week" and maybe after-school tutoring etc. That's schedule info. Could be under Schedule heading. - About IDEA Public Schools and Staff Experience: could be under About the role? But we already used About the role for mission. Could add another section like "About IDEA Public Schools" but not allowed heading. Allowed headings are limited. We could incorporate that info into About the role section as additional paragraph. Or we could create a separate section like "About IDEA Public Schools" but not allowed; we must only use allowed headings. So we should fold that into About the role or maybe under Responsibilities? Better to add to About the role as extra paragraph. Thus final sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Skills, Pay, Benefits, Schedule. Check each has substantive content. Now craft HTML. We need to usefor section headings. Use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose. We must not include boilerplate like cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. Not present. We must not repeat job title as heading. We must not include Job ID/requisition numbers. We must preserve all substantive information. Let's extract details precisely. About the role paragraph: combine mission description and maybe also "Academy core subjects are state assessed in 3rd grade." plus maybe the IDEA Public Schools overview? We'll include mission and maybe brief about IDEA? But to avoid too much, we can include mission and the IDEA Public Schools overview as part of About the role. That seems okay. Responsibilities list: from "What You’ll Do -- Accountabilities": bullet points: - Implement state learning standards and IDEA curricula and assessments to meet ambitious academic expectations - Submit weekly lesson plans two weeks in advance for feedback - Implement formal and informal assessments to track each individual student’s progress and learning needs, adjust lesson plans accordingly and update gradebook weekly - Communicate students’ progress with student and family on a weekly basis - Effective facilitation and personal use of technology as a communication and educational tool to improve student achievement and manage work related tasks. - Implement a clear and consistent behavior management system that aligns to campus- wide initiatives while developing students’ character and sense of community in the classroom - Help shape and develop a school wide culture that fosters a productive and enthusiastic learning environment for each student - Establish and maintain a cooperative working relationship with students and families based on trust, understanding and respect for the communities in which they identify. - Host necessary tutoring sessions to meet all students’ needs - Participate in weekly manager check-ins, grade-level meetings, before and after-school duties, and school wide meetings and functions - Engage in summer and year-long district, school and personal learning and development - Minimum of 40+ hours spent at school per week - Additional responsibilities may include: after-school tutoring or Saturday school and are based on the needs of our scholars Also earlier "What You Bring -- Competencies" includes values list; but that's more about values, could be part of About the role or maybe separate but we don't have a heading for values. Could incorporate into About the role as paragraph. We'll keep responsibilities as above. Requirements list: include: - High level of content-area proficiency as evidenced by teaching certification, field of study, or work-experience (strongly preferred) - Education: Bachelor’s Degree from an accredited four-year educational institution (required) - Experience: Experience in a K-12 classroom setting (strongly preferred) - Licenses or Certifications: Teachers of record for students in K-3 must possess appropriate Reading Academies certification in accordance with TEA requirements or must be willing and able to obtain all relevant TX training within required timelines. - Bilingual certification strongly preferred, content and ESL certification preferred (not required) - Service Record Requirement: To ensure compliance with Texas Education Code 21.4031 and accurately verify creditable service, candidates selected for this position must submit official electronic service records from previous educational employers. Service records will be used to validate professional experience and determine creditable years of service and compensation, as applicable. We could also include "Knowledge of core academic subject assigned and ability to pass an IDEA content assessment" but that's under Skills. Skills list: from Knowledge And Skills: - Knowledge of core academic subject assigned and ability to pass an IDEA content assessment - Knowledge of curriculum and instruction - Ability to instruct students and manage student behavior - Strong organizational, communication, and interpersonal skills - Ability to adjust and adapt to a multitude of situations in the school environment Pay: details: - Starting teacher salary for 0 years of experience is $63,500. - This role is eligible for various stipends based on certifications, credentials, and campus leadership ranging from $500-$4,000 each. - We also offer additional performance-based compensation. - Additional hourly compensation is provided for after school tutoring or Saturday school as assigned.

Schedule: we have "Minimum of 40+ hours spent at school per week" already listed under responsibilities; but we could also have schedule section referencing that plus after-school tutoring etc. However to avoid duplication, we could keep schedule section short: "Minimum of 40+ hours per week, with potential after-school tutoring or Saturday school as assigned." But we already have that in responsibilities. Might be okay to have schedule section referencing that. The instruction: do not emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text. So schedule must have real specific content. We have that. We could move the minimum hours and after-school tutoring to schedule section and remove from responsibilities to avoid duplication. But responsibilities already includes many items; we could keep responsibilities without those schedule items, and schedule section includes them. Let's adjust. Responsibilities list: remove "Minimum of 40+ hours spent at school per week" and "Additional responsibilities may include: after-school tutoring or Saturday school and are based on the needs of our scholars". Keep rest. Schedule section: include those two points. Now ensure we haven't lost any substantive info: we kept the after-school tutoring mention in schedule. Now craft HTML. We'll need to wrap each section in
then content. For lists, use
- ...
. Let's construct. About the role: combine mission paragraph and maybe IDEA overview and values list? We'll include mission paragraph and maybe a brief about IDEA Public Schools overview and values list as prose. We'll create two paragraphs: first mission, second about IDEA Public Schools and values. But we must not create filler. It's fine. Now produce HTML. Check no
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
