High School Teacher - Social Studies (LTS)
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose. Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it) and do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. IMPORTANT: 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") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. Output ONLY the HTML fragment — no /, no markdown code fences.
Thus we need to decide which sections to include. The posting includes:
- Job Summary (Teach curriculum... etc.)
- Qualifications (Licensed by the state of Minnesota to teach high school social studies... etc.)
- Responsible To (Building Principal)
- Compensation / Benefits (According to contractual agreement... benefits list)
- Also there is a description of district (Our team... etc.) which is more about the organization; could be "About the role"? Actually "About the role" is generic; but we have a description of district mission, values, etc. That could be considered "About the role" or "About the district". The instructions say we can use headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We should map content accordingly.
We have:
- Job Summary: could be placed under "About the role" or maybe "Responsibilities"? The job summary includes teaching curriculum, carrying out responsibilities as defined by master contract and principal, maintain communication. That's more like responsibilities. So we could put under "Responsibilities". But we also have a separate "Responsible To" line.
- Qualifications: we have qualifications list.
- Benefits: we have benefits list.
- Pay: Not explicitly stated; only "According to contractual agreement." No specific pay amount. So we should NOT create a Pay section because it's not specific (just says according to contractual agreement). The rule says never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. Benefits are stated (list). So we can have Benefits section.
- Schedule: Not given (just effective dates). Could be considered schedule? The posting includes Effective Date Of Employment Anticipated Dates: November 5, 2026 until December 17, 2026. That's a temporary assignment. That's schedule info (dates). Should we create a Schedule section? The rule says never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. The posting does state the anticipated dates, so we could include a Schedule section with those dates. However the instruction says "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." Might combine schedule into a short paragraph under About the role? But we have a specific schedule. I'd include a Schedule section with the dates.
- About the role: Could include the district description (mission, values, etc.) as "About the role" or maybe "About the district". Since we have a heading About the role allowed, we can put that content there.
- Responsibilities: Could include the job summary bullet points.
- Qualifications: as given.
- Benefits: as given.
We need to remove boilerplate: EEO, application instructions, etc. Also remove duplicated lines. Also remove navigation, cookie, legal, etc. The posting includes a lot of EEO statement at the end; we must remove that. Also remove "Application Procedures Internal and External Candidates: Apply on-line at www.district196.org". Also remove "Equal Opportunity Employer" etc. Also remove contact info for directors? That's part of EEO; likely remove. Also remove "The Director of Human Resources..." etc. Also remove "Title IX inquiries may also be referred..." etc. Also remove "Asterisked categories are limited..." etc. Also remove mailing address? That's part of EEO; remove.
Also remove "Our team of dedicated educators is committed to the mission..." That's substantive about district; keep.
Also remove "District 196 is a Minnesota public school district..." etc. That's also substantive about district; keep.
Also remove "District 196 has been named to Forbes' list..." etc. Keep.
Also remove "District 196 has 20 elementary schools..." etc. Keep.
Also remove "The district also operates three learning centers..." Keep.
Thus we keep the district description paragraphs.
Now we need to format.
We'll produce something like:

Schedule
Anticipated employment dates: November 5, 2026 through December 17, 2026.
We also have "Effective Date Of Employment Anticipated Dates: November 5, 2026 until December 17, 2026 Application Deadline October 5, 2026 4:00 p.m." The application deadline is also metadata; we could include that in a short paragraph under About the role or maybe a separate "Application deadline" but we are told to drop application instructions. The deadline is part of application instructions; we should drop it. The rule says remove application instructions. So we drop the deadline.
Also we have "1.0 FTE (LTS)" maybe we could include that as part of About the role? It's metadata about position. Could be included in a short paragraph. But we might drop minor metadata. The rule says fold minor metadata into a short or drop it. So we could include a short paragraph about FTE and LTS? Might be considered minor. I'd include a short paragraph under About the role maybe after the district description: "This is a 1.0 FTE (LTS) position." But we need to preserve all substantive information; is FTE substantive? It's about employment status. Could be considered substantive. I'd include it.
Thus after the district description paragraph, add a
This is a 1.0 FTE (LTS) position.
Now check for any other substantive content: "Compensation / Benefits According to contractual agreement. If benefit eligible, benefits are available to new employees effective the first day of active employment." We already captured benefits list; we might also include a sentence about benefits effective first day. Could add to Benefits section as a before list: "If benefit eligible, benefits are available to new employees effective the first day of active employment." That's substantive.
Also "According to contractual agreement." Could be mentioned under Benefits or maybe a separate Compensation section but we don't have specific pay. We could add a note under Benefits: "Compensation is according to the contractual agreement." That's okay.
Thus Benefits section could have a
Compensation is according to the contractual agreement. If benefit eligible, benefits are available to new employees effective the first day of active employment.
then the .
Now check for any other content: "Responsible To Building Principal". Could be included under Responsibilities as a bullet: "Reports to the Building Principal." Or we could add a separate line. I'd add a bullet under Responsibilities: "Reports to the Building Principal."
Now check for any duplicate lines: We have "Carry out responsibilities as defined by the master contract." and "Carry out responsibilities as defined by the principal." Already there.
Now ensure we didn't include any boilerplate: We removed EEO, application instructions, contact info, etc.
Now output only HTML fragment.
Let's craft final HTML.
We need to ensure we don't have any stray text outside tags.
We'll output:
