Elementary Teacher - First Grade
- list of responsibilities. Should we keep subheadings? Probably just list items.
- Requirements: maybe "What Are We Looking For?" bullet list: Believes..., Embraces..., Thrives..., Is committed... That's requirements.
- Qualifications: list: Bachelor’s degree required. Valid teaching license. Proven ability..., Commitment..., Strong understanding...
- Skills: Not explicitly listed; maybe we can infer from responsibilities but not explicit. Better not to create Skills section if no explicit content.
- Benefits: detailed compensation and benefits section. Include Pay? The posting includes compensation details: performance-based compensation plan, base salary, potential signing bonus, up to 10% increase, Master Teacher program, etc. Also benefits: medical, dental, vision, disability, supplemental insurance, life insurance, mental health, TCRS pension, 401k, 403b, time off, parental leave, laptop. So we have both Pay and Benefits content. According to rules, we should create Pay and Benefits sections only if posting actually states them. It does state compensation details, so we can have Pay section (maybe include base salary, performance-based, signing bonus, Master Teacher). Benefits section for benefits package.
- Schedule: Not explicitly stated; maybe mention school-year employees time off, summer break, etc. That is schedule info. Could include Schedule section with time off details. However the rule: "never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them." The posting does state time off package, which is schedule/benefits. So we could include Schedule section with time off details. But we already have Benefits section covering many benefits; time off could be part of Benefits or Schedule. To avoid duplication, maybe put time off under Benefits as it's a benefit. But the rule says prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could combine Pay and Benefits into one "Compensation and Benefits" section, but the instruction says use headings Pay, Benefits, Schedule separately if content exists. However we can decide to have Pay and Benefits separate if we have distinct content. The posting includes both compensation details and benefits details. So we can have Pay section (compensation plan) and Benefits section (health, retirement, time off, parental leave, laptop). Schedule maybe not needed if time off is under Benefits. But we could still include Schedule if we want to highlight time off. However to avoid thin sections, maybe combine time off into Benefits. So we will have Pay and Benefits sections.
Now we need to output HTML fragment with
- for lists,
for prose. We must not include boilerplate like EEO, application instructions, etc. Remove "Application Process..." lines. Also remove "Job Title: Elementary Teacher Reports To: Principal" maybe fold into short p. We need to preserve all substantive information. Let's extract. Introductory paragraphs: "At LEAD Public Schools, we believe in the power of education to transform lives.

Now Pay section:
Content: "LEAD Public Schools offers an innovative performance-based compensation plan for teachers. This plan allows us to transparently reward our teachers not by how many years they have worked but rather by their positive impact on students and schools, evidenced by their consistent performance in and out of the classroom. Teachers receive a competitive base salary with the potential for a signing bonus and can earn up to 10% on their base salary each year through our performance-based compensation plan. This plan has been in place for 5 years, and we have seen an average annual increase of over 5% for our teachers with approximately 80% retention for those who qualify. Additionally, teachers are eligible for LEAD’s Master Teacher program after 3 years. In this program, teachers can earn up to $100,000 and receive a $1,500 professional development stipend."
