So we should NOT create Benefits section because no real benefit content. The rule: never create Benefits section unless posting actually states them. It states there are no benefits, but that is still a statement about benefits. However the rule says: "never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them." It states that there are no benefits. That is stating them (i.e., stating that there are none). Should we include a Benefits section with that statement? The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." Also "include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. 'commensurate with experience', 'not specified', 'N/A', 'varies', 'TBD')". The statement "This position does not include benefits." is specific content, not filler. So we could include a Benefits section with that sentence. However they also said "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." Might be okay to include Benefits with that line. - Pay: we have wage range $20.95-$37.00 per hour. That's specific. So include Pay section. - Schedule: we have part-time, schedule requires candidate to be at GSCES everyday of the week, Working Months 10, Shift Day. That's specific. So include Schedule section. We also have Organization/Location info: Great Seneca Creek Elementary School, Germantown. Could be part of About the role or maybe a separate section? Not in list of allowed headings. The allowed headings are only those enumerated. So we should incorporate location into About the role or maybe a short paragraph. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID. We must remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. Not present. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. Thus produce something like:

About the role

Under direction of the school principal and special education supervisor, the special education teacher provides direct instruction and instructional support to students with disabilities and works in collaboration with the general education teacher. Monitors and evaluates outcomes for students with disabilities. Assists in the development of Individualized Education Programs (IEP). Physical demands are as required by the duties and responsibilities of the job. Special requirements include attending school meetings, programs, and activities outside the instructional day as mandated by the Montgomery County Education Association agreement; completing specific MCPS courses (including behavioral management with nonviolent crisis interventions) for teachers in special education schools or discrete special education service models; and supporting behavioral interventions. This position is part‑time in the SPED Home School Model Program at Great Seneca Creek Elementary School, Germantown.

Responsibilities

Provide direct instruction and instructional support to students with disabilities; collaborate with general education teachers; monitor and evaluate student outcomes; assist in developing IEPs.

But we might combine responsibilities with about the role to avoid thin sections. However we have enough content for responsibilities. Better to have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Pay, Schedule, Benefits. But we need to avoid duplication. Let's extract: Responsibilities: direct instruction, instructional support, collaboration, monitor/evaluate outcomes, assist in IEP development. Requirements: Special Requirements (attend meetings outside instructional day, complete MCPS courses, support behavioral interventions). Also Education/Training Experience: Bachelor's degree in special education, fluency in learning theory etc., student teaching or two years experience, other combinations considered. Certification: Meets MD SPC I in special education; content area certification desirable. Qualifications: maybe same as Knowledge Skills Abilities? Could treat Knowledge Skills Abilities as Qualifications. Skills: maybe the abilities list. But we can combine Knowledge Skills Abilities into Qualifications and Skills sections. Simplify: Use About the role (summary), Responsibilities (duties), Requirements (education, certification, special requirements), Qualifications (knowledge of MCPS curriculum, IEP, etc.), Skills (ability to provide instructional support, work well with others, adapt programs, communication, apply TPGS standards), Pay, Schedule, Benefits. Check each section for substantive content. Let's craft each. About the role: include summary description plus location and program. Responsibilities: list bullet points. Requirements: include special requirements (attend meetings, MCPS courses, behavioral interventions), education (Bachelor's degree in special education, fluency in learning theory etc., student teaching or two years experience), certification (MD SPC I, content area desirable). Qualifications: knowledge of MCPS curriculum, special education program, IEP, learning theory, differentiated instruction, data collection, best instructional practices, research-based reading instruction, multicultural education, assessments, methods of teaching elementary math (if elementary), ESSA 2015, IDEA 2004, state/federal policies. Skills: ability to provide instructional support, works well with students with disabilities, teachers, parents/guardians, ability to adapt instructional programs/materials, excellent communication skills, knowledge and ability to apply six performance standards of MCPS TPGS. Pay: wage range $20.95-$37.00 per hour. Schedule: part-time, schedule requires candidate to be at GSCES everyday of the week, Working Months 10, Shift Day. Benefits: position does not include benefits. We must use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So for Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications?, Skills?, Benefits? The rule: Use
    • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

      for prose. So if we have a list, we need to use ul/li. For prose we use p. Thus: - Responsibilities: list of duties -> ul/li. - Requirements: could be a list (special requirements, education, certification) -> ul/li. - Qualifications: list of knowledge areas -> ul/li. - Skills: list of abilities -> ul/li. - Benefits: single statement "This position does not include benefits." Could be p or ul/li. Since it's not a list, we can use p. - Pay: single statement -> p. - Schedule: could be list? It's multiple items: part-time, schedule requires candidate to be at GSCES everyday of the week, Working Months 10, Shift Day. Could be ul/li. We need to preserve all substantive information; not invent or summarize away detail. So we must keep specifics like "GSCES", "Germantown", "Working Months 10", "Shift Day". Also "part-time teaching position in our SPED Home School Model Program". Also "The schedule requires the candidate to be at GSCES everyday of the week." Now produce HTML. Let's craft.
