for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we need to map content accordingly. We have: Position Title, Location, Reports To, Employment Type, Start Date, Salary Range. We should not repeat job title as heading. We can include metadata in a short
. We should not include Job ID etc. We need to remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. Also remove "Physical Requirements" maybe? It's not listed as a section to include unless we have content. The instruction: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text. Physical Requirements is specific content, but not among the allowed headings list? The allowed headings list includes About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Physical Requirements is not in that list; we could possibly treat it as part of Requirements? But better to omit if not matching allowed headings? The instruction says use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid other headings, but suggests those as examples. However we should probably stick to those categories. Physical Requirements could be considered part of Requirements. But we have a separate "Qualifications Of The Ideal Candidate" section which includes required and preferred qualifications. That maps to Requirements/Qualifications. So we can put that under Qualifications
. Responsibilities: we have "Key Responsibilities of the Role". That maps to Responsibilities. About the role: we have "About The Opportunity" and also "About Booker T. Washington Academy". Could combine into About the role or About the school? The instruction says About the role is a possible heading. We'll use About the role for the opportunity description. The school description could be part of About the role or maybe we could have a separate About the school but not needed. We'll include About the role covering both the opportunity and school mission.
Pay: we have salary range. So we need a Pay section with the salary range.
Benefits: we have benefits description. So Benefits section.
Schedule: we have Employment Type: Full-time, Exempt, Start Date: SY26-27. That could be considered Schedule? Not exactly but we could put Schedule section with full-time and start date. Or we could put that in a short
metadata. The instruction says do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. So we can put location, reports to, employment type, start date in a short
after the heading? Actually we need a heading for About the role maybe then a
with metadata. Let's think. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /. We'll produce something like:
About the role
Location: Hamden / New Haven, CT • Reports To: School Principal • Employment Type: Full-time, Exempt • Start Date: SY26-27

Qualifications
with maybe split into Required and Preferred? Could use- with subheadings? But we can just list all qualifications as list items, maybe separate required and preferred with headings inside? But we cannot add extra headings beyond
- . The text includes sub-bullets? Let's parse: Instructional Excellence - Plan rigorous math instruction by intellectually preparing standards‑aligned lessons that build conceptual understanding, procedural fluency, and mathematical reasoning. - Deliver high‑quality instruction that develops core disciplinary skills—problem‑solving, modeling, analyzing patterns, constructing arguments, and critiquing reasoning. - Build strong, affirming relationships that create a classroom where scholars feel safe taking intellectual risks, asking questions, and engaging deeply with challenging math tasks. - Integrate culturally relevant and responsive practices to make math meaningful, identity‑affirming, and connected to students’ lived experiences and communities. - Use data and ongoing assessment (exit tickets, problem‑solving tasks, discourse, formative checks) to differentiate instruction and ensure every learner is known and supported. Classroom Culture & School Community - Establish a structured, joyful classroom grounded in mutual respect, high expectations, and consistent routines that support productive mathematical discourse and collaboration. - Model and reinforce BTWA’s values—excellence, character, self‑discipline, responsibility—to help scholars grow as leaders in school and community. - Partner with families to build trust, share progress, and ensure shared ownership of student growth. - Contribute to school life by supporting events, leading a club or enrichment experience (math‑related or otherwise), and helping sustain BTWA’s traditions and community culture. Collaboration & Professional Learning - Engage in weekly professional learning, including coaching, co‑planning, department work, and grade‑level collaboration focused on strong science instruction and deeper learning. - Collaborate with colleagues to build a positive, high‑performing adult culture centered on continuous improvement and shared responsibility for student success. - Give and receive feedback to refine instructional practice, strengthen lab and classroom routines, and improve student outcomes—demonstrating adaptability, openness, and a growth‑oriented mindset as part of your professional practice. Leadership & Contribution Beyond the Classroom - Support common school routines (arrival, dismissal, lunch, recess, transitions) to ensure safety, consistency, and a positive school culture. - Lead a homeroom/advisory that builds community, fosters authentic relationships, and supports scholars’ social‑emotional development. - Strengthen school-wide systems and traditions, including exhibitions, performances, and public demonstrations of learning that reinforce BTWA’s identity and celebrate scholar voice. - Take ownership of school-wide initiatives and special projects that advance BTWA’s mission and support scholars’ academic and character development. We'll output each as

then- etc.
Benefits: The posting says: "In addition to competitive compensation, Elevate offers a range of comprehensive benefits packages to all regular, full-time employees at a competitive value." Also earlier: "In addition to competitive compensation, Elevate offers a range of comprehensive benefits packages to all regular, full-time employees at a competitive value." That's it. We'll put that in a
. Pay: Salary range: $50,500 - $90,000, commensurate with experience and qualification. Also later: "Compensation Range: $50.5K - $90K". We'll keep the precise. Now About the role paragraph: Need to combine "About Booker T. Washington Academy" and "About The Opportunity". Let's extract: About Booker T. Washington Academy paragraph: "Booker T. Washington Academies (BTWA) in New Haven, CT, serves K–4 scholars at its Elementary campus and grades 5–8 at its Middle School campus. Founded in 2014 around Booker T. Washington’s credo—“Excellence is doing common things in uncommon ways”—BTWA balances a rigorous academic program with the cultivation of morals, character, self-discipline, responsibility for one’s actions, lifestyle, work ethic, and educational uplift. Scholars develop proficiency in reading, writing, critical thinking, discussion, and problem-solving to meet college and career goals, while embracing and demonstrating the morals, character, self-discipline, and work ethic to be leaders in life and community. Recognized as a Connecticut School of Distinction in 2018 (Category 1) and again in 2024 (Category 2)—the only New Haven public school honored that year—BTWA equips graduates to work hard, harness the power of education, elevate themselves, and give back to their communities in a transformational way.

with- of benefits (comprehensive benefits packages). The posting says: "In addition to competitive compensation, Elevate offers a range of comprehensive benefits packages to all regular, full-time employees at a competitive value." That's vague but still specific? It says range of comprehensive benefits packages. Not enumerated. Might be considered filler? It's not specific like health, dental, etc. Might be considered placeholder? The instruction: never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD"). Benefits description is vague but still says "range of comprehensive benefits packages". Might be considered not specific enough. However we could still include it as it's real content, albeit not enumerated. I'd include a
describing that. Pay:

Schedule: maybe we can omit because we already included employment type and start date in About the role metadata. The instruction says prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could skip Schedule section. Thus final HTML:About the role

We must preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep all details from responsibilities, qualifications, etc. Let's extract responsibilities list: From "Key Responsibilities of the Role As a Middle School Math Teacher BTWA MS, you will be primarily responsible for:" then bullet list under Instructional Excellence, Classroom Culture & School Community, Collaboration & Professional Learning, Leadership & Contribution Beyond the Classroom. Each has multiple items. We need to capture each bullet as
