EC Adapted Curriculum Teacher (26-27 SY)
for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. No job title heading. No metadata like Job ID. Remove boilerplate. We need to parse the posting.
Content:
General Definition of Work: description of role. Could be "About the role". Use About the role
then
with that paragraph. Qualifications: there is a "Qualifications" heading in original. Also "Education And Experience". Also "Special Requirements". Also "Knowledge, Skills, Abilities". Also "Essential Functions". Also "Salary/Status Certified Schedule/Full-time, 10 months". Also "Reports To Principal". Also "Place of Work". Also "Place of Work" details. We need to decide sections: About the role (General Definition). Responsibilities (Essential Functions). Requirements (maybe Education And Experience + Special Requirements). Qualifications (maybe Knowledge, Skills, Abilities). Skills (maybe part of Knowledge, Skills, Abilities). Benefits (none). Pay (Salary/Status). Schedule (Schedule/Full-time, 10 months). Also maybe "Reports To Principal" and "Place of Work" could be folded into About the role or a short paragraph. We must not create sections with filler like "not specified". So only include sections where we have concrete info. Let's extract: About the role: "The exceptional children teacher, under moderate supervision, performs intermediate level work with limited decision-making discretion implementing effective teaching strategies aligned to the appropriate curriculum and accordance with the Individual Education Program (IEP) of each assigned student. Position develops lesson plans and delivers group and individual student instruction that guides and encourages students to develop and fulfill academic goals. Employee performs school-based work to carry out Board of Education policies under the direction of the principal." Responsibilities (Essential Functions): list many bullet points. We'll put as
- each.
Requirements: maybe Education And Experience + Special Requirements. Education And Experience: "Bachelor's degree requiredMaster's degree in education preferredValid, or renewing, NC Teaching license in assigned area requiredEquivalent combination of experience and education". Special Requirements: "Possess and maintain a valid driver's license or ability to provide own transportationTravel to school district buildings and professional meetings". Combine.
Qualifications: maybe "Knowledge, Skills, Abilities" section. That is a long list. Could be Qualifications.
Skills: maybe we could split Knowledge, Skills, Abilities into Skills? But we already have Qualifications. The instruction says use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have Qualifications and Skills separate if content fits. Knowledge, Skills, Abilities could be split: Knowledge and Skills and Abilities. But we can put all under Skills? However we have also a "Qualifications" heading earlier in the posting. The posting includes a "Qualifications" heading before the list of requirements. Actually after General Definition, there is "Qualifications To perform this job successfully..." then list of requirements (knowledge, skill, ability). Then later there is "Knowledge, Skills, Abilities". So there is duplication. We need to preserve all substantive info, not repeat. We should combine.
Thus we can have:
- About the role (General Definition)
- Responsibilities (Essential Functions)
- Requirements (Education And Experience + Special Requirements)
- Qualifications (Knowledge, Skills, Abilities) maybe also include the earlier Qualifications paragraph? But that paragraph is generic: "To perform this job successfully, an individual must be able to perform each essential function satisfactorily. The requirements listed below are representative of the knowledge, skill, and/or ability required. Reasonable accommodations may be made to enable individuals with disabilities to perform the essential functions." That's boilerplate but still part of Qualifications. We can include as a
under Qualifications. - Skills: maybe we could separate but we already have Knowledge, Skills, Abilities which includes skills. Could treat that as Skills section. But we already used Qualifications for that. To follow instruction, we could have both Qualifications and Skills sections if we can split content meaningfully. However risk of thin sections. Better to have Qualifications (includes knowledge, skills, abilities) and maybe Skills not needed. But we need to follow instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we can omit Skills if not needed. - Pay: Salary/Status Certified Schedule/Full-time, 10 months. Actually that line includes both salary/status and schedule. It says "Salary/Status Certified Schedule/Full-time, 10 months". So we have Pay: "Certified". Schedule: "Full-time, 10 months". We'll split. - Benefits: none. Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Pay, Schedule. Now we need to output HTML fragment only. We must not repeat job title. No metadata like Reports To Principal, Place of Work? Could fold into About the role as a short paragraph. Let's add a sentence: "Reports to the principal; work is performed on Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools premises, with possible reassignment as needed." That's derived from Reports To Principal and Place of Work. Now craft content. About the role paragraph: combine General Definition plus reports and place. Responsibilities: list each essential function as
- . Need to preserve all. Let's list them exactly as in text, each bullet.
Essential Functions list:
- Adhere to all state, federal, and local laws, policies, and procedures

We need to ensure no duplication.
Now Requirements: Education And Experience + Special Requirements.
Education And Experience: "Bachelor's degree requiredMaster's degree in education preferredValid, or renewing, NC Teaching license in assigned area requiredEquivalent combination of experience and education". Need to add spaces for readability. We'll make a
with that text, maybe separate sentences. Special Requirements: "Possess and maintain a valid driver's license or ability to provide own transportationTravel to school district buildings and professional meetings". Add space. We'll combine into a
maybe two sentences. Qualifications: includes the generic Qualifications paragraph and Knowledge, Skills, Abilities list. Generic Qualifications paragraph: "To perform this job successfully, an individual must be able to perform each essential function satisfactorily. The requirements listed below are representative of the knowledge, skill, and/or ability required.
