We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting includes "CLASS TITLE: Teacher" repeated, "CHARACTERISTICS OF THE CLASS:" etc. We need to reformat into clean semantic HTML. Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We must not repeat job title as heading. We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content. The posting includes: Characteristics of the class (description), Essential Functions (responsibilities), Minimum Qualifications (Education and Experience, License Requirements, Knowledge, Abilities, and Skill, Physical Requirements), Benefits, Salary Range (Pay). Also location and posting date maybe minor metadata; we can fold into a short

or drop. We should not include cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. There's none. We need to decide sections: About the role could be the Characteristics of the class description. Responsibilities could be Essential Functions. Requirements could be Minimum Qualifications (Education and Experience, License Requirements). Qualifications maybe Knowledge, Abilities, and Skill. Skills maybe same? But we need to avoid duplication. The instruction: Use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We should include sections only when posting has real specific content. So we can have: - About the role (Characteristics of the class) - Responsibilities (Essential Functions) - Requirements (Education and Experience + License Requirements) - Qualifications (Knowledge, Abilities, and Skill) - Skills? Might be overlapping; maybe we can skip Skills if not distinct. But we could include Skills as part of Qualifications? The instruction says prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe combine Knowledge, Abilities, and Skill into Qualifications, and not separate Skills. Physical Requirements could be part of Requirements or a separate section? Could be part of Requirements. But we have a heading for Requirements; we can include physical requirements there. - Benefits (Benefits section) - Pay (Salary Range) - Schedule? Not provided, so omit. We also need to include location and posting date maybe as a short

at top? The instruction: do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

or drop it. So we can include a

with location and posting date. We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep the details from each section. We need to use

  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

    for prose. Thus we need to convert paragraphs into

    and lists into

    • . Let's extract content. Characteristics of the class: "Under the supervision of the school principal, responsible for the instruction, progress, and discipline of all pupils in assigned classes, and performs related duties as required." That's a single sentence; we can put in

      . Essential Functions: a long sentence with many clauses separated by semicolons. We need to break into list items? The instruction: Use

      • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. The essential functions is a list of duties; we can split by semicolons into
      • . Must preserve all detail. Let's parse: "Responsible for instructional planning, including, but not limited to, providing written lesson plans and preparation in accordance with the objectives of the instructional program, establishing positive learning expectation standards for all pupils, and evaluating pupils' progress and maintaining current and accurate records of pupils' achievements; implements instructional methods, including, but not limited to, applying contemporary principles of learning theory and teaching methodology, drawing from the range of instructional materials available in the school, participating in the development and implementation of new teaching techniques, and providing bulletin board and interest areas reflective of pupils' current work; exhibits and applies knowledge of the curriculum content related to subject areas and instructional level; participates in programs to improve student attendance; promotes anti-vandalism programs in the schools; establishes and maintains reasonable rules of conduct within the classroom and on school grounds, including, but not limited to, playgrounds, corridors, and lunchrooms, consistent with the provisions of the Chicago Public Schools' Uniform Discipline Code; maintains accurate attendance records and seating charts; encourages student growth in self-discipline and positive self-concept; ensures fairness in teacher-pupil relationships and exhibits an understanding and respect for students; initiates appropriate conferences with parents, guardians, administrators, and/or ancillary personnel, in accordance with school procedures; communicates with parents or guardians and counsels pupils on the pupil's academic progress, attendance, and conduct; participates in in-service meetings and professional staff meetings and uses pertinent information and materials provided; may coordinate and attend class field trips; may work in extra-curricular and after-school activities; utilizes appropriate resources available in the community." We need to keep the detail; we can make each semicolon-separated clause a
      • . Ensure we keep the text inside each
      • exactly as in the clause (including internal commas). We'll need to strip leading/trailing spaces. Minimum Qualifications: Education and Experience. "Successful completion of all student teaching requirements as well as all course work required to obtain the appropriate teaching certificate(s) issued by the Illinois State Board of Education." License Requirements: "Teachers must possess at least one of the following valid teaching licenses issued by the Illinois State Board of Education: Professional Educator License (PEL) or Educator License with Stipulations (ELS), properly endorsed for this position." Knowledge, Abilities, and Skill: This section includes multiple sentences: "Knowledge of subject matter consistent with state certification requirements, knowledge of contemporary principles and practices of teaching, knowledge of classroom and behavior management techniques. Ability to modify instruction to meet student needs, ability to cooperate with the school faculty and administration in the development and implementation of an articulated program of instruction, ability to work effectively with pupils, parents and guardians, staff members, and community representatives in providing an appropriate educational program; ability to understand the physical, intellectual, social, and emotional patterns of pupils. Skill in the application of contemporary principles and practices of teaching, good oral and written communication skills, good interpersonal skills, skill in exercising sound and professional judgment." We can treat as list items? It's a mix of knowledge, abilities, skills. Could be a
          with each bullet representing each item. But we need to preserve all detail; we can break by sentences and maybe by commas? Better to keep as

          with the sentences? The instruction says use

          • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. This is a list of knowledge, abilities, and skill items; we can treat as list. Let's split by periods? Actually there are three sentences: first about knowledge (three items separated by commas), second about ability (four items separated by commas and a semicolon?), third about skill (four items separated by commas). We could make each sentence a
          • but that would lose granularity. Better to make each distinct item a
          • . Let's extract items: Knowledge: - Knowledge of subject matter consistent with state certification requirements - Knowledge of contemporary principles and practices of teaching - Knowledge of classroom and behavior management techniques Ability: - Ability to modify instruction to meet student needs - Ability to cooperate with the school faculty and administration in the development and implementation of an articulated program of instruction - Ability to work effectively with pupils, parents and guardians, staff members, and community representatives in providing an appropriate educational program - Ability to understand the physical, intellectual, social, and emotional patterns of pupils Skill: - Skill in the application of contemporary principles and practices of teaching - Good oral and written communication skills - Good interpersonal skills - Skill in exercising sound and professional judgment We'll keep each as
          • . Physical Requirements: "Light Work: Exerting up to twenty (20) pounds of force occasionally, or up to ten (10) pounds of force frequently, or a negligible amount of force constantly to move objects. Physical demands include the ability to stoop occasionally, reach frequently, handle and finger objects occasionally, talk and hear constantly, frequent use of near visual acuity, and occasional use offer visual acuity." Note there is a typo "offer visual acuity" but we must preserve as is. We can put as

            or break into list? It's not a list but we can keep as

            . Benefits: The benefits section includes headings: Health & Wellness: Your Care, Your Choice ... etc. It includes sub-sections with bullet-like lines but not marked with bullets. We need to convert to

            • for any list of benefits. The text includes: "Health & Wellness: Your Care, Your Choice CPS Is Committed To Providing Comprehensive Health Coverage To Our Employees And Their Eligible Dependents. You'll Have Access To a Variety Of Choices To Best Fit Your Needs: Medical Plan Options Pharmacy Dental Vision Behavioral Health & EAP Employee Wellness Program Financial Security: Planning for Today and Tomorrow We understand the importance of financial stability, which is why CPS offers strong retirement and savings options: Basic Life Insurance Life and Disability Insurance Pension Plans Supplemental Retirement Plans (403(b) and 457(b)) Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs) Spot Pet Insurance Work-Life Balance: Supporting Your Personal and Professional Life CPS values the well-being of its employees and offers competitive paid time off policies: Paid Leave Sick Leave Vacation Days Parental Leaves Short-Term Disability Religious Holidays Leaves Reference the Chicago Public Schools: A Comprehensive Benefits Overview or the benefits handbook for comprehensive details." We need to preserve all detail. This is a bit messy; we can treat each colon-separated category as a heading? But we only allowed headings via

              for specific section headings. We could keep as

              but we need to use

              • for any list of benefits. The benefits are enumerated after colons but not as list items. Could we convert each item after colon into
              • ? For example under Health & Wellness: we have "Medical Plan Options Pharmacy Dental Vision Behavioral Health & EAP Employee Wellness Program". That's a list separated by spaces; we could split into items: Medical Plan Options, Pharmacy, Dental, Vision, Behavioral Health & EAP, Employee Wellness Program. Similarly Financial Security: list: Basic Life Insurance, Life and Disability Insurance, Pension Plans, Supplemental Retirement Plans (403(b) and 457(b)), Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs), Spot Pet Insurance. Work-Life Balance: list: Paid Leave, Sick Leave, Vacation Days, Parental Leaves, Short-Term Disability, Religious Holidays Leaves. We need to preserve the introductory sentences as well. Could keep them as

                before the list. Thus we can structure Benefits section with

                Benefits

                then a

                for the introductory sentences, then

                • for each benefit item grouped maybe under subheadings? But we cannot add extra headings besides the allowed ones? The instruction only says use

                  for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid other headings, but we should follow the pattern. Safer to just use

                  for prose and

                  • for lists; we can embed the benefit categories as part of
                  • text. Simplify: We'll create a
                      where each
                    • contains the benefit category and its items as a sentence. Eg:
                    • Health & Wellness: Your Care, Your Choice – CPS is committed to providing comprehensive health coverage to employees and their eligible dependents. You'll have access to a variety of choices to best fit your needs: Medical Plan Options, Pharmacy, Dental, Vision, Behavioral Health & EAP, Employee Wellness Program.
                    • Similarly for Financial Security and Work-Life Balance. We must preserve all detail; we need to not lose any items. Let's extract exactly. Original benefits text: "Health
