We need to output HTML fragment with sections only if real content. Use

for headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must not repeat job title as heading. We need to preserve all substantive info, remove boilerplate (EEO, etc). Include Pay and Schedule only if posting actually states them. The posting includes pay ranges: "SPECIAL EDUCATION PARPAROFESSIONAL Range $19.27-$27.08 hourly with Employee/Employer retirement, dependent upon previous experience Range $16.29-$22.87 hourly with Employer-paid retirement, dependent upon previous experience". Also "Job Group: Specialized or Technical Terms of Employment: Pay Grade 23 on the Classified Wage Structure (9 month) FLSA Status: NON-EXEMPT". So we have pay info. Schedule? Not explicit schedule besides "9 month" maybe indicates school year schedule (9 month). Could interpret as schedule: 9-month (school year). The instruction: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. It states Pay Grade 23 (9 month) and pay ranges. So we can include Pay section with those details. Schedule? It mentions "9 month" which could be considered schedule (school year). Might be acceptable to include Schedule section with "9-month (school year)". However we need to be careful: The instruction says never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. It does state "Pay Grade 23 on the Classified Wage Structure (9 month)". That implies schedule of 9 months. So we could include Schedule: 9-month (school year). Benefits? It mentions retirement options: "Employee/Employer retirement" and "Employer-paid retirement". That's benefits. So we can include Benefits section describing retirement. We also need sections: About the role (position summary), Responsibilities (essential duties), Requirements (education, training, licenses, physical/mental requirements maybe), Qualifications (maybe same as requirements?), Skills (maybe ability to work etc). We need to avoid duplication. We'll decide to have sections: About the role (position summary), Responsibilities (essential duties), Requirements (education, training, licenses, physical/mental requirements), Skills (abilities like CPR, etc). Benefits (retirement). Pay (pay ranges and grade). Schedule (9-month). Ensure we don't create empty sections. We must not include boilerplate like EEO, equal opportunity, etc. Also remove duplicated lines, navigation, cookie, legal, scam-warning, application instructions. There's none explicit. We must preserve all substantive information. So we need to include all duties, responsibilities, requirements, etc. Let's extract content: Position Summary: Under the supervision of a licensed teacher, works in a special education assisting teaching staff in a variety of instructional activities to provide specially designed instruction to students with disabilities. Assists teachers in providing individual and group functional living, academic skills, vocational and behavioral management support, as well as personal care attendant services to students with various mental, and/or physical disabilities to successfully implement requirements of students individualized education plan (IEP). Additional intensive training beyond what is necessary for a Special Education-Paraprofessional in the areas of student data collection, communication strategies, severe behaviors, and positive behavior management for Autism Spectrum Disorders, Cognitive Disabilities or Behavioral Disorders will be required. This person reports directly to the school site administrator. Essential Duties And Responsibilities: list many bullet points. We need to turn each bullet into
  • . The list is long; we need to preserve all. Let's copy the duties text: "Assists the student(s) in the program to whom they are assigned in such physical tasks as putting on and taking off outerwear, moving from room to room, using the restroom, provide toileting and/or personal hygiene care (i.e. changing diapers), carrying lunch trays, eating, transportation, etc.Assists the student(s) in curriculum tasks as assigned by a certified teacher, carrying out instructional programs and lessons in various learning environments, in and out of the traditional classroom, as designated in the instructional plan based on the IEP and under the direct supervision of the certified teacher.Under the direct supervision of a certified teacher, works with small groups of students to reinforce material initially introduced by the teacher.Accompanies the student(s) to other locations within the school, if the child's disability warrants this type of support.Establishes as fully as possible a supportive relationship with the student(s) without fostering or encouraging intense emotional involvement.Serves as a resource person, if and when requested, to the student's eligibility and IEP teams when conferring about the student whom the paraprofessional is assigned.Assisting individual students in performing activities initiated by the special education or classroom teacher.Assisting the special education teacher in data collection procedures, observing, recording and charting behavior.Monitoring and reporting student(s) progress to the certified personnel.Assist the student in interacting with the available classroom technology & augmentative devices (SmartBoard, iPad, etc.).Conforms to safety standards as prescribed.Ability to work with students and adults in a variety of settings on and off school campus areas.Ability to commute outside of attendance area as required by certified personnel in order to transport students to programs not available within the student's school of attendance.Ability to take direction from and provide assistance to the Special Education teacher in charge of the special education program.Performs and participates in other related duties as assigned by the building administrator or designee." Note there are some ability statements mixed in; but they are part of duties. We'll keep them as list items. Position Expectations (Knowledge of CPR/AED and Universal Precautions... etc). That's more like requirements/skills. Position Requirements Education and Training: High school diploma or GED equivalent.Valid driver's license and DMV clearance. Licenses and Certifications: Must have the ability to complete: Specialized training as needed to meet student needs as outlined in IEP's.Current Crisis Prevention and Restraint Training, First Aid, and CPR Training.Blood borne Pathogen and Universal Precaution Training Physical And Mental Requirements: list. Working Conditions: list. We need to decide sections: About the role (position summary). Responsibilities (essential duties). Requirements (education, training, licenses, physical/mental, working conditions?). Qualifications maybe combine education/licenses. Skills maybe abilities (CPR, etc). But we must not create thin sections; better to combine. Given instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could have: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (including education, training, licenses, physical/mental, working conditions), Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can omit Skills if covered. Let's craft. About the role: use the position summary paragraph. Responsibilities:
    • each duty. We need to split the long string into separate items. The original list seems to be sentences separated by periods but no clear bullet. We'll split at each sentence that starts with a verb. Let's manually create items based on the text. I'll list them: 1. Assists the student(s) in the program to whom they are assigned in such physical tasks as putting on and taking off outerwear, moving from room to room, using the restroom, provide toileting and/or personal hygiene care (i.e. changing diapers), carrying lunch trays, eating, transportation, etc. 2.

Now Requirements: We'll include Education and Training, Licenses and Certifications, Physical and Mental Requirements, Working Conditions. We can make sub-sections? But we only allowed headings h3. Could embed paragraphs with bold? But we must follow rules: only use

      for section headings,
      • for lists,

        for prose. We can have multiple

Current Crisis Prevention and Restraint Training, First Aid, and CPR Training. Blood borne Pathogen and Universal Precaution Training. Physical And Mental Requirements: list many items.
