Early Head Start - Education Manager (Statewide, MT)

We need to output HTML fragment with headings

for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. The posting includes description (intro) maybe "About the role". It includes responsibilities list. It includes Benefits list. It includes Requirements (talents, skills, abilities). It includes Skills (some repeated). It includes Qualifications? Not explicit but maybe "Requirements" covers qualifications. There's no explicit Pay or Schedule. So we should not create those sections. Also we should not repeat job title as heading. We need to preserve all substantive info, remove boilerplate like EEO etc. Also remove navigation, cookie, legal, duplicated lines, application instructions. The description includes some fluff about mission etc. We'll keep that as prose under About the role. We need to format responsibilities as

• . Benefits as list. Requirements as list? The requirements paragraph includes multiple sentences; we can break into list items for each bullet? The original is paragraph with sentences separated by periods. We can convert each sentence to
• . Similarly Skills maybe separate list. We must not invent content. Ensure we keep all details. Let's extract sections: About the role: The introductory paragraph(s) before "Responsibilities". That includes: "Early Head Start Education Manager - $67,500.00 per year AWARE - Billings/Begrade/Helena/Butte, MT - Full-Time If you are passionate about providing high-quality care to individuals in your community, we invite you to join our team at AWARE.

  About the role

  maybe. Responsibilities: list of many duties. We'll extract each sentence after "Responsibilities". The list starts with "Ensures all compliance..." and continues many sentences. We'll split by sentences (period). We'll need to keep each as
• . Ensure we don't lose any. Benefits: "BENEFITS: Health Insurance, FSA, HSA, 401k, Employee Assistance Program, Tuition Advancement, Professional Development." We'll make list. Requirements: The paragraph after "Requirements". It includes multiple sentences: "Talents, skills, and abilities: Ability to, under AWARE’s Unconditional Care Philosophy, implement individual support plans with the knowledge of behavioral techniques, interventions, skill building techniques, and understanding of the emotional and behavioral needs of individuals diagnosed with a disability. Understanding of infant and toddler development, early childhood education, a broad working knowledge relative to the needs of low-income children, including experiences with exceptional needs and quality teaching practices. A knowledge of Montana childcare licensing requirements, Head Start Performance Standards, and federal and state safety standards, preferred. SKILLS are required to perform multiple tasks to meet changing job conditions and program needs. Specific skills required to satisfactorily perform functions of the job include the ability to ability to use abstract reasoning, problem solving, form professional relationships with a diverse group of people, ability to communicate clearly and concisely and strong writing skills. ABILITY to plan, organize, direct, evaluate, and refine comprehensive services to children and their families. Position also requires the ability to establish long range vision of program education goals and accomplishments and the ability to establish and maintain effective working relationships with agency staff, children and parents, and outside agencies. Ability to collect and analyze data specific to the responsibilities of this position using active listening skills. Requires computer literacy skills, including the ability to navigate, record, and overall basic computer skills needed for performance-based software as well as an electronic medical records system. Requires a BS/BA Degree in Early Childhood Education, Child Development, or a related field, in addition to direct employment related experience. Requires at least three (3) years of employment in a leadership position with a demonstrated knowledge of program planning and implementation practices and cultivating community relationships, including supervisory experience. Head Start/Early Head Start experience preferred.*Current and former Head Start parents are given preference for hire into positions for which they are qualifiedMust have or be willing to obtain a valid Montana driver license , with an acceptable driving record. Must pass a criminal and protective services background check." We need to split into list items. Some sentences are long; we can keep as is. Skills: There's a mention of SKILLS but it's within Requirements. The instruction says we can have a Skills section if there is real specific content. The posting includes a sentence about skills: "Specific skills required to satisfactorily perform functions of the job include the ability to ability to use abstract reasoning, problem solving, form professional relationships with a diverse group of people, ability to communicate clearly and concisely and strong writing skills." That's already in Requirements. We could still create a Skills section but might duplicate. Better to keep under Requirements only, as we prefer fewer sections. The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we can omit separate Skills section and keep skills within Requirements. Qualifications: Not separate; we can treat Requirements as qualifications. Pay: The posting includes salary "$67,500.00 per year" in the intro line. That is Pay info. Should we create a Pay section? The rule: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text. The posting does have specific pay: $67,500.00 per year. So we should include a Pay section with that info. However the intro also includes location and full-time. That could be Schedule? Actually schedule is Full-Time. That's schedule info. So we could include Schedule section with "Full-Time". But the rule says prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. However we have specific content for Pay and Schedule; we could include them. But we might also incorporate them into About the role paragraph. The instruction: "Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it) and do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

  or drop it." Pay and Schedule might be considered minor metadata? But they are substantive. The instruction says include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text. It does not forbid creating Pay or Schedule sections if content exists. However they also say "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we could decide to keep Pay and Schedule as separate sections or fold them into About the role. Since we already have About the role with description, we could add Pay and Schedule as separate sections to keep info clear. But that would increase sections. However the instruction says prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. If we add Pay and Schedule, we would have About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Benefits, Pay, Schedule = 6 sections. That's many but each is substantive. Could we combine Pay and Schedule into About the role? The About the role currently includes the salary line and full-time. We could keep them there as part of the prose. That would reduce sections. The instruction says "fold minor metadata into a short

  or drop it." Pay and Schedule might be considered metadata but they are specific. However we could keep them in About the role paragraph. That seems acceptable. Thus we will have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Benefits. Possibly also Qualifications? Not needed. We must not include boilerplate like EEO etc. At end there is "We are proud to be an equal opportunity employer." Remove. Also remove duplicated lines. Now craft HTML. We'll need to escape any special characters? Not needed. Structure:
