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. We must not repeat job title. Remove boilerplate, EEO, etc. Must preserve all substantive info.
We need to parse the posting.
Content:
- About Alma: description of school, mission, location, results, etc. This could be "About the role"? Actually "About Alma" is about the organization. The instruction says use headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we need to map content accordingly.
We have sections: "The ESL Specialist Role" describing duties: plan and teach interventions, work with teachers, develop relationships with families, receive support, autonomy, professional growth.
That's responsibilities.
Then "Who We're Looking For": qualifications: bachelor's degree or higher, at least one year full-time teaching experience K-12, proven effectiveness leading students to significant academic gains (include data), Massachusetts Teacher License required - English as a Second Language Teacher PreK-6, link, passion, humility, resilience, hunger to learn, strong team orientation, infectious joy, bilingual encouraged.
Then "In Addition, The Ideal Candidate Has The Following Competencies": list of competencies: Show me the Outcomes, High Demand, High Support, Crew, It's Our Ship, Challenge, Challenge. These are like skills/competencies.
Then "What You Can Expect": weekly meetings with manager, fully stocked supply closets, prep periods every day, weekly meetings with manager (duplicate), comprehensive benefits package including: paid sick/personal day, paid holidays, paid school breaks, medical/dental/vision insurance PPO/HMO, paid parental leave and short term disability, multiple retirement options including 403(b) with matching, friendly supportive colleagues. Also "This is an academic year position. School hours are 8:20-4:00 for staff." That's schedule.
Compensation: "Salary will be competitive and commensurate with full time teaching experience. First year teachers start at $49,150. We offer a comprehensive benefits package. Bilingual candidates are compensated higher." This is pay info.
We need to include Pay section only if posting actually states them. It does state salary start and mention competitive, so we can include Pay.
Schedule: school hours 8:20-4:00 for staff, academic year position. So we can include Schedule.
Benefits: we have comprehensive benefits package details. So include Benefits.
Qualifications: maybe separate from Requirements? The instruction says we can have both Requirements and Qualifications sections. We need to decide what goes where. Typically Requirements: minimum qualifications (degree, experience, license). Qualifications: preferred or additional (bilingual, passion, etc). But we can combine if needed. However we should follow instruction: use headings only when posting has real specific content. We have content for both.
Let's extract:
About the role: maybe a brief description of the role? The posting has "The ESL Specialist Role" paragraph describing duties. That could be under About the role or Responsibilities. Since we have a Responsibilities heading, we can put duties there. About the role could be a short overview: "As an ESL Specialist at Alma del Mar, you will plan and teach highly effective interventions..." But that's basically responsibilities. To avoid duplication, we could put About the role as a brief summary: "The ESL Specialist plans and teaches interventions, collaborates with teachers, builds family relationships, and receives support for professional growth." But we must not invent or summarize away detail. We need to preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. So we cannot create a summary that omits details. We must include all substantive info. If we put About the role heading, we need to include the same content as responsibilities? That would duplicate. Better to not include About the role if it would be redundant or just repeat. The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we can skip About the role if we have Responsibilities covering duties. However we need to include something about the role? The instruction says use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities...). It doesn't mandate we must include all; we include only when posting has real specific content for it. The posting does have a description of the role (the ESL Specialist Role). That could be considered About the role. But we also have responsibilities list within that paragraph. Could we treat that as About the role and not have a separate Responsibilities? The responsibilities are embedded in that paragraph. We could put the paragraph under About the role. Then we could have Responsibilities as a list if we extract list items. But the paragraph is not a list; it's prose. We could keep it as prose under About the role. Then we could still have Responsibilities heading if we have a list of duties. But we don't have a separate list; we could split sentences into list items but that would be inventing structure? It's okay to convert prose to list if it's duties? The instruction: Use
for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title. Remove boilerplate, EEO, etc. Must preserve all substantive info.

The instruction: Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. If we have duties expressed as sentences, we could turn them into list items to follow rule. That's acceptable as long as we preserve all info. So we could extract duties as list items.
Thus we could have:
About the role
As an ESL Specialist you will plan and teach highly effective interventions both within and outside the general education classroom using the English Language Development Standards. You will work closely with other teachers who serve kids in the grades you teach and the academic support team to design instruction that furthers every scholar's learning. You will develop high leverage relationships with Alma families. You'll receive the support you need in all aspects of your work, while retaining the autonomy to do what's right for the scholars with whom you work closely every day. At Alma we believe that we can best serve our scholars by helping you to meet your long-term professional growth and career goals.
That's the prose from the role description. Then we could have Responsibilities heading if we want to list duties more explicitly, but that would duplicate. Better to not have Responsibilities separate if we already covered duties in About the role. However the instruction says we can have sections like Responsibilities; we can choose to omit if content is covered elsewhere. Since we have About the role with duties, we can skip Responsibilities.
Now Requirements: we have minimum qualifications: bachelor's degree or higher, at least one year full-time teaching experience K-12, Massachusetts Teacher License required - English as a Second Language Teacher PreK-6, proven effectiveness leading students to significant academic gains (include data). Also maybe "passion for working with kids and belief that all kids can succeed" could be more of a skill/quality. But we can treat as Requirements.
Qualifications: maybe bilingual encouraged, humility, resilience, hunger to learn, strong team orientation, infectious joy. Also the competencies list: Show me the Outcomes, High Demand, High Support, Crew, It's Our Ship, Challenge, Challenge. Those could be Skills.
Skills: we can list those competencies as list items.
Benefits: list of benefits.
Pay: salary info.
Schedule: academic year position, school hours 8:20-4:00.
We must not include boilerplate like EEO, equal opportunity, etc. Also remove duplicated lines (weekly meetings with manager appears twice). We'll include once.
We must not include navigation, cookie, legal, scam warning.
Now produce HTML fragment.
We need to ensure we don't include headings with empty content. All sections must have real specific content.
Let's draft:
