Elementary Literacy Interventionist (One-Year-Only) External Applicants Only
for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must include only sections with real content. The posting includes many details: job summary, essential functions (instructional delivery, assessment, collaboration, professionalism), required knowledge and skills, science of reading requirement, required education/training/qualifications, required prior experience, assigned decision making, non-supervisory interaction, supervisory responsibility, budget responsibility, working environment, physical requirements. Also includes license requirements, etc. Also includes position begins 2026-2027 school year, contact info, etc. We need to remove boilerplate like closing note, job ID, etc. Also remove duplicated lines.
We need to decide sections: maybe "About the role" (job summary), "Responsibilities" (essential functions), "Requirements" (license, science of reading, education, experience), "Qualifications" (knowledge and skills), "Skills" maybe overlapping; but we can combine. The instruction: prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications. Possibly also "Physical Requirements" if substantive. But we can include physical requirements under Requirements or separate? The rule: include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it. Physical requirements are present, so we could have a section "Physical Requirements". However we might combine into Requirements. But we have many categories; maybe better to have: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (including license, education, experience, science of reading, physical requirements), Qualifications (knowledge and skills). Avoid thin sections like Benefits, Pay, Schedule (not present). So we output those four sections.
We must use for each section heading. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include details like: position begins 2026-2027 school year, contact Ben Peters, etc. Also include that it's One-Year-Only, external applicants only, FTE 1.0, etc. Also include salary schedule info? It says Salary Schedule: Teacher Salary Schedule, Lane Placement: A-G, Contract Length: 189 Days (9 months), FTE:1.0, FLSA Classification: Exempt, Special Designation: ***OYO***, Last Revised: April 2026. Those are substantive; we should include them maybe under About the role or Requirements. Since they are metadata about the position, we could put them in About the role as a paragraph.
We must not repeat the job title as a heading. The job title is "Elementary Literacy Interventionist". We must not put it as heading. So we start with sections.
We need to remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. Not present.
We need to remove duplicated lines: there are repeated paragraphs about performing job successfully etc. We'll keep one version.
Let's extract content:
