District Groundskeeper
for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must only include sections where posting has real specific content. The posting includes: TITLE, REPORTS TO, JOB SUMMARY, TERMS OF EMPLOYMENT, QUALIFICATIONS (physical, etc.), Job Responsibilities SPECIFIC DUTIES (list of duties). Also mentions "Reasonable accommodations may be made..." etc. Also mentions EEO boilerplate which we must remove. Also mentions "Terms and conditions as established by the Board of Education." That's TERMS OF EMPLOYMENT. We need to decide sections: About the role (maybe from JOB SUMMARY). Responsibilities (list of duties). Requirements/Qualifications (physical abilities, equipment operation, etc.). Skills maybe not separate; but we can combine qualifications and skills. The instruction: Use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We should include only those with content. We have content for About the role (JOB SUMMARY). We have Responsibilities (list of duties). We have Requirements/Qualifications (physical, equipment operation, etc.). Possibly Skills could be separate but we can include under Qualifications. Benefits, Pay, Schedule: not provided. So we should not include those sections. We also have REPORTS TO and TERMS OF EMPLOYMENT. Could be part of About the role or maybe a separate section like "Reports to" but not in allowed headings list. The allowed headings list includes only those specific ones; we should not create other headings. So we should incorporate REPORTS TO and TERMS OF EMPLOYMENT into About the role paragraph or maybe a short
after summary. The instruction: "Do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it." So we can include REPORTS TO and TERMS OF EMPLOYMENT as a short paragraph. We must preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. Must not include boilerplate like EEO, ADA compliance, reasonable accommodations (though that is substantive? It's about accommodations; but it's generic boilerplate. The instruction says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The ADA statement and equal opportunity are likely boilerplate; we should remove them. Also "Reasonable accommodations may be made..." is part of ADA; likely boilerplate. Remove. Also "The information contained in this job description is in compliance with the American Disabilities Act (A.D.A.) and is not an exhaustive list..." remove. Also "Additional duties are performed..." remove as boilerplate. Also "The Clear Creek Amana School is an Equal Opportunity Employer..." remove. Also "Federal law obligates an employer..." remove. We must keep the substantive duties list. Now format: Use
for each section heading. Then content:
for prose,
- for lists.
We need to decide how to split qualifications: maybe a
- list of physical requirements, equipment operation, etc.
Let's extract qualifications:
- Physical: Is physically able to work in a standing or sitting position for prolonged periods.
- Is able to work in hot and cold climates during all seasons of the year.
- Willingness to have a flexible schedule as required by seasonal needs.
- Has manual dexterity to handle pieces of grounds equipment such as trimmers, edging machines, snow blowers and misc. hand tools for extended periods of time.

- Is able to lift materials weighing up to (seventy) 70 pounds on a routine basis and will be required to lift heavier items as needed.
- Mechanical aptitude for performing routine maintenance checks on equipment is a plus.
- Experience with pouring concrete is a plus.
We could also include "Willingness to have a flexible schedule" as part of qualifications.
Now responsibilities list: It's broken into sections: Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter, plus general duties. We need to preserve all substantive info. We'll create a single
