We must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info, no invention. Remove boilerplate. We need to parse the posting. Key info: - Position Type: Middle School Teaching/Language Arts - Date Posted: 5/7/2026 - Location: Yorkville Middle School - Date Available: 08/10/2026 - Closing Date: Until Filled - District: Yorkville Community School District 115 - Opening for .5 FTE Middle School Language Arts Teacher to provide support for the 2026-2027 school year. - Position Purpose: To facilitate student success and growth by implementing district-approved curriculum, addressing specific educational needs of individual students, and by creating a flexible, safe, and optimal learning environment.

We need sections: About the role (maybe summary), Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide which sections have content. - About the role: Could include Position Purpose and maybe general description. We have Position Purpose paragraph. Also maybe Position Type, Location, Date Available, etc. But we should not repeat job title. We can include a paragraph summarizing the role: .5 FTE Middle School Language Arts Teacher, purpose, etc. - Responsibilities: Essential Performance Responsibilities list (bulleted). Also Additional Duties maybe part of responsibilities. Equipment and Travel Requirements could be part of responsibilities or separate? But we only have sections defined; we can put equipment and travel under Responsibilities as part of duties. - Requirements: Could include FLSA Status? Not really a requirement. Maybe certification/license, education, experience. That's qualifications. Requirements could be things like certification, education, experience. But we have Qualifications section separate. The instructions: Use headings for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we need to map content accordingly. We need to decide what goes where. Typically: - About the role: overview, purpose, maybe location, FTE, etc. - Responsibilities: duties. - Requirements: maybe mandatory items like certification, license, education, experience. - Qualifications: maybe preferred qualifications? But we have both certification/license and experience as "Qualifications Profile". Could treat that as Qualifications. - Skills: Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities list. - Benefits: Not mentioned except maybe part of CBA? Not explicit. No benefits described. So we should NOT include Benefits section. - Pay: Starting Salary info. - Schedule: Not mentioned (maybe .5 FTE implies part-time schedule). Not explicit. No schedule details. So we should NOT include Schedule. Thus we will include sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Pay. Check if any content for Requirements: we have certification/license, education, experience. Those could be Requirements. Qualifications maybe "Prefer bilingual Education Bachelors..." Actually the text: "Certification/License: Professional Educator License (PEL) with proper endorsement for Middle School ELAPrefer bilingual Education Bachelors from an accredited college or university in Elementary Education or related discipline applicable to teaching assignment." This seems garbled: maybe they meant "Certification/License: Professional Educator License (PEL) with proper endorsement for Middle School ELA. Prefer bilingual Education Bachelors from an accredited college or university in Elementary Education or related discipline applicable to teaching assignment." So we have certification requirement and preferred bilingual education. Experience: "Successful prior teaching experience for the appropriate grade levels a plus." That's a qualification (preferred). So we could put certification as Requirement, experience as Qualification (preferred). Or we could put both under Requirements. But we have separate Qualifications heading; we can put preferred qualifications there. Thus: - Requirements: Certification/License (PEL with Middle School ELA endorsement). Education: Bachelors in Elementary Education or related discipline (maybe required). Actually they said "Prefer bilingual Education Bachelors..." So maybe Bachelors is required, bilingual preferred. We'll treat Bachelors as requirement. - Qualifications: Preferred: bilingual education, prior teaching experience. - Skills: Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities list. - Pay: Starting Salary $51,612 /BS+0, year 1 (pro-rated at .5 FTE). Also note FLSA Status: Exempt maybe could be included under Pay or Requirements? But we can include FLSA status under Pay section as note. - About the role: Position Purpose and maybe .5 FTE, location, date available. We must not include boilerplate like "Note: The above description is illustrative..." etc. Remove that. Also remove Equipment and Travel Requirements? They are substantive; we could include them under Responsibilities as additional duties. We must preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep all details from the posting, but we can reorganize into sections. We must not omit any substantive info. So we need to ensure we include everything: Position Type, Date Posted, Location, Date Available, Closing Date, District, Position Purpose, Essential Performance Responsibilities (list), Additional Duties, Equipment, Travel Requirements, Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities, Physical and Mental Demands, Work Hazards, Qualifications Profile (certification/license, education), Experience, FLSA Status, Starting Salary, CBA note. We must not include boilerplate like "Note: The above description is illustrative..." and "Note: Also see the Summary..." etc. Also remove "Position Type:", "Date Posted:", etc as headings? We can embed that info in prose. We must not repeat job title as heading. Already not. We must not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings (none present). We must not include application instructions (none). We must not include cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc (none present). Thus we need to craft HTML with sections. Let's extract each piece: - Position Type: Middle School Teaching/Language Arts (maybe not needed as separate but we can include in About the role). - Date Posted: 5/7/2026 (maybe not needed but could be included in About the role as metadata). However instructions: "Do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

or drop it." So we can include date posted etc in a short paragraph. - Location: Yorkville Middle School - Date Available: 08/10/2026 - Closing Date: Until Filled - District: Yorkville Community School District 115 We can combine these into a short paragraph under About the role. - Position Purpose paragraph. - Essential Performance Responsibilities: list of items (each sentence). We'll make

  • for each. - Additional Duties: "Performs other related tasks as assigned by the program administrator and other central office administrators as designated by the Superintendent." Could be a
  • under responsibilities. - Equipment: "Uses standard office equipment such as personal computers, printers, copy and fax machines, and telephone." Could be a
  • . - Travel Requirements: "Travels to school district buildings and professional meetings as required." Could be a
  • . - Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities: list items. - Physical and Mental Demands, Work Hazards: "Works in standard office and school building environments." Could be a
  • under responsibilities or maybe separate but we have no section for that; we could put under Responsibilities as a duty. - Qualifications Profile: Certification/License: Professional Educator License (PEL) with proper endorsement for Middle School ELA. Prefer bilingual Education Bachelors from an accredited college or university in Elementary Education or related discipline applicable to teaching assignment. We need to parse: Actually the line: "Certification/License: Professional Educator License (PEL) with proper endorsement for Middle School ELAPrefer bilingual Education Bachelors from an accredited college or university in Elementary Education or related discipline applicable to teaching assignment." There's missing space; likely they meant "Middle School ELA. Prefer bilingual Education Bachelors..." So we have certification requirement (PEL with Middle School ELA endorsement). Preferred: bilingual Education Bachelors. - Experience: "Successful prior teaching experience for the appropriate grade levels a plus." That's a preferred qualification. - FLSA Status: Exempt - Starting Salary: $51,612 /BS+0, year 1 (This will be pro-rated at a .5 FTE) - CBA note: "This position is part of the Yorkville CBA, which can be found by clicking here." We need to include all substantive info. So we need to include the CBA note somewhere, maybe under Pay or About the role. We must not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep the exact phrasing? Not required to keep exact phrasing but must preserve all substantive information; we can rephrase but must not lose detail. Safer to keep close to original. We'll produce HTML:
