Behavior Counselor - Crosby High School
for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title. Must preserve all substantive info, no boilerplate. Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. Also remove duplicated lines. Must not include Pay/Schedule/Benefits unless posting actually states them. The posting includes: "10 months; 35 hours per week $21.72-$28.77 per hour." That's schedule (10 months; 35 hours per week) and pay ($21.72-$28.77 per hour). So we can include Pay and Schedule sections. Benefits? Not mentioned. So no Benefits.
We need sections: About the role (summary), Responsibilities (essential functions), Requirements (minimum knowledge, skills and abilities? Actually that's qualifications). Qualifications (education and experience, certifications). Skills (knowledge, skills and abilities list). We need to decide mapping.
We have parts:
Part I - Summary Of Classification: description of role.
Part II - Minimum Knowledge, Skills And Abilities: includes Education and Experience, Substitutions Allowed, Credentials (licenses), Continuing Education Requirements (none?), Knowledge, Skills and Abilities (long list).
Part III - Position Supervises: may provide work direction to paraprofessionals.
Part IV - Essential Functions: list of duties.
Part V - Working Conditions, Physical And Mental Requirements: includes physical demands etc. Might be considered as Requirements? But we can include under Requirements or maybe as a separate section? The instruction says use headings for those specific categories; we can include Working Conditions under Requirements? But better to include as a separate section? Not in list. The allowed headings are only those listed. So we must fit content into those headings. Working conditions could go under Requirements or maybe under About the role? Probably under Requirements (physical requirements). We'll include under Requirements.
We must not include boilerplate like EEO, etc.
We must not include duplicated lines.
We need to output only HTML fragment, no or . Use for each section heading. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to include details like: 10 months; 35 hours per week $21.72-$28.77 per hour. Also note: "This is a union, grant funded position that exists as long as grant funds are available." That's metadata; we can fold into a short
maybe under About the role? Or maybe under Requirements? It's about job classification. We'll include a short paragraph under About the role.
We need to include "Reports To Receives general direction from a Principal or other administrative official of a higher grade." That's also metadata; we can include under About the role.
FLSA designation Non-Exempt.
We need to include "Part I - Summary Of Classification" content.
Let's extract substantive content:
Summary: "This class is accountable for providing behavioral resources and intervention programs. Guidelines for Class Use: This job classification focuses on responding to repeated Level 1 Behaviors and Level 2 Behaviors and on implementing a positive behavior management system in order to improve student behavior and enhance academic skills. The management of the behavior system includes, but is not limited to, collecting and tracking data pertaining to students and school wide patterns, training staff in de-escalation strategies, implementation of positive behavior plans/climate plans and general climate improvement."
That's the summary.
Also we have "Part iii - Position Supervises May provide work direction to paraprofessionals." That's a responsibility.
Essential Functions list many duties.
Education and Experience: General Experience Five (5) years working with behavioral resources and intervention of adolescents in a high school environment. Special Requirement Certification in Physical Management Training procedures. Substitutions Allowed: Associate's Degree may be substituted for two (2) years of the General Experience. College training ... may be substituted for the General Experience on basis of fifteen (15) semester hours equaling one half (1/2) year of experience to a maximum of four (4) years for a Bachelor's degree.
Credentials: LICENSURES, CERTIFICATIONS AND OTHER REQUIREMENTS: Incumbents may be required to possess and retain a current Motor Vehicle Class D Driver's License.
CONTINUING EDUCATION REQUIREMENTS: (blank? none listed) maybe none.
Knowledge, Skills and Abilities: long list.
We need to separate into sections:
- About the role: summary + reports to + FLSA + grant funded note + schedule? Actually schedule and pay separate.
- Responsibilities: essential functions list + supervising paraprofessionals.
- Requirements: education and experience, special requirement, substitutions, credentials (driver's license), continuing education (if any), physical/working conditions? Might be separate but we can include under Requirements.
- Qualifications: maybe same as Requirements? But we need both sections; we can treat Requirements as "Minimum Knowledge, Skills And Abilities" (the list) and Qualifications as "Education and Experience, Certifications". However the instruction says use headings for those specific categories; we can decide to include both.
Better: Use Requirements for education/experience/credentials; Use Skills for the knowledge, skills and abilities list; Use Qualifications maybe for something else? But we have limited distinct content. Could combine Qualifications and Requirements? But we need to avoid empty headings. We'll include only sections that have real content.
Let's plan:
