for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We need to parse the description. Key parts: - Role Mission: description of responsibilities?

Then "About IDEA Public Schools": description of organization. Then "Staff Experience At IDEA, the Staff Experience Team uses our Core Values to promote human connection and a culture of integrity, respect, and belonging for all Team and Family members. Learn more about our Commitment to Core Values here!" Then "To Apply Please submit your application online through Jobvite. It’s in your best interest to apply as soon as possible." This is application instruction, we should remove. We need to produce sections: maybe About the role (role mission), Responsibilities, Requirements (maybe Qualifications?), Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We have Pay info: starting teacher salary $59,500, stipends, performance-based compensation, hourly compensation for after school tutoring or Saturday school. That's pay. Schedule: Minimum of 40+ hours spent at school per week; also after-school tutoring or Saturday school as assigned. Could be schedule. Benefits: we have benefits details. Qualifications: education, experience, licenses/certifications. Skills: knowledge and skills list. About the role: role mission paragraph. Responsibilities: list of duties. We need to avoid repeating job title as heading. No Job ID. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. We'll produce sections in order: About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Possibly also include "Values" but not required heading; maybe we can incorporate into About the role or Responsibilities? The values list is after responsibilities; could be part of About the role? But we have no heading for values; we could include as a
    under About the role? However the instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." We could combine values into About the role or Responsibilities. But we have a separate "We look for Team and Family who embody the following values and characteristics:" list. That could be part of About the role or maybe a separate section like "Values". But there is no heading for Values in the allowed list; we could still create a heading if we want but 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 says use those for those sections. It says "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So maybe we can incorporate values into About the role or Responsibilities. Better to have sections: About the role (mission + values), Responsibilities, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Now we need to extract content. About the role: combine role mission paragraph and values list. Role mission paragraph: "IDEA Early Education teachers are responsible for ensuring that every IDEA student masters the academic and social skills necessary to succeed in college, while also embodying IDEA’s values daily. In addition, IDEA Early Education teachers set ambitious goals for student achievement and invest students and families in accomplishing them; create a powerful learning environment; plan and deliver purposeful, rigorous instruction; assess for mastery and track student progress toward goals; analyze data to intervene and adjust instruction; and seek excellence as an educator and an IDEA team member. Academy core subjects are state assessed in 3rd grade." Values list: "Believes and is committed to our mission and being an agent of change: that all students are capable of getting to and through college; Has demonstrated effective outcomes and results, and wants to be held accountable for them; Has a propensity for action, willing to make mistakes by doing in order to learn and improve quickly; Works with urgency and purpose to drive student outcomes; Thrives in an entrepreneurial, high-growth environment; is comfortable with ambiguity and change; Seeks and responds well to feedback, which is shared often and freely across all levels of the organization; Works through silos and forges strong cross-departmental relationships in order to achieve outcomes; We believe in education as a profession and hold ourselves to high level of conduct, professionalism and behaviors as models for our colleagues and students." We'll put these as
    • items. Responsibilities: list of duties as given. Qualifications: Education, Experience, Licenses or Certifications. Skills: Knowledge and Skills list. Benefits: list of benefits. Pay: compensation details. Schedule: Minimum of 40+ hours spent at school per week; Additional responsibilities may include after-school tutoring or Saturday school. We need to ensure we don't include boilerplate like "Service Record Requirement:" etc. That's part of qualifications? Actually service record requirement is a separate paragraph: "Service Record Requirement: To ensure compliance with Texas Education Code21.4031 and accurately verify creditable service, candidates selected for this position must submit official electronic service records from previous educational employers. Service records will be used to validate professional experience and determine creditable years of service and compensation, as applicable.Additional hourly compensation is provided for after school tutoring or Saturday school as assigned." That seems like a requirement (service record) and also mentions hourly compensation (already in pay). We should include service record requirement under Qualifications maybe as a requirement. It's substantive. So we need to include that. Also "Other Benefits We offer a comprehensive benefits plan..." we already captured. Now we need to ensure we don't include duplicated lines, cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. There's none. Now produce HTML. We'll wrap each section in

      heading then content. For lists, use
      • . For prose, use

        . We must not repeat job title as heading. Let's craft. About the role:
