Newbury Park Adventist Academy: Principal, Full-Time, Exempt
for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. Remove boilerplate. Must preserve all substantive info.
Let's parse the posting:
- Job Title: Principal, Full-Time, Exempt. (but we don't repeat as heading)
- Department: Education Department
- Location: Newbury Park, California
- Employment Type: Administrative Full-Time
- Minimum Experience: Experienced (maybe not needed)
- Compensation: $77,402 to $86,737
- Job Summary: paragraph about mission, etc.
- Essential Duties & Responsibilities: list of duties (many bullet-like sentences)
- Required Qualifications: paragraph with qualifications
- PHYSICAL DEMANDS: list
- ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS: paragraph
- Compensation section again: mention salary range and benefits
- Deadline: Resumes accepted until April 16, 2026, or until position is filled. Interview may be required in person.
- Link to This Job (ignore)
- Privacy Policy etc (ignore)
We need sections: About the role (maybe Job Summary), Responsibilities (Essential Duties & Responsibilities), Requirements (maybe Required Qualifications plus physical demands?), Qualifications (maybe same as Requirements?), Skills (maybe not explicit), Benefits (mentioned in compensation), Pay (salary range), Schedule (maybe not explicit; we have Full-Time but not schedule details). We should only include sections with real specific content.
We have compensation details: salary range and benefits. So we can have Pay section with salary range, Benefits section with benefits description.
Schedule: Not given besides Full-Time; but "Full-Time" is a schedule type. Could we include Schedule section with "Full-Time"? The rule: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. It does state Full-Time under Employment Type. So we could include Schedule with "Full-Time". However we need to avoid filler like "not specified". It's specified: Full-Time. So we can include.
But we also have "Employment Type Administrative Full-Time". So schedule: Full-Time.
Now About the role: Job Summary paragraph.
Responsibilities: Essential Duties & Responsibilities list.
Requirements: Could combine Required Qualifications and Physical Demands? But we need separate sections maybe: Requirements (maybe qualifications) and Qualifications (maybe same). The instruction: Use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). They are examples; we can choose which to include. We should not duplicate similar content. Perhaps we can have Requirements for required qualifications (including certifications, experience) and Qualifications for educational/degree etc. But they overlap. Better to have one section for Qualifications (includes education, experience, certifications) and maybe another for Skills? Not given explicit skills list; we have "strong verbal, written, and interpersonal skills", "proven instructional leader", "ability to use appropriate data", "experience with institutional fundraising". Those could be skills. But we could put them under Qualifications.
Given the instruction to prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones, we might combine into: About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. That's six sections.
We must not repeat job title as heading. Use for each section heading.
We need to use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. For prose, use
.
We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all details from the posting, but we can format them.
Let's extract details:
About the role (Job Summary):
"Support the Southern California Conference (“SCC”) in accomplishing its mission, “to exalt Christ by cultivating healthy churches and schools” and its core values of integrity with transparency, engagement, stewardship, unity in diversity, and relationships & team. The principal is the Chief Administrative Officer (CAO) of the Academy and is charged with providing leadership that maintains and forwards Newbury Park Academy’s commitment to excellence, as well as providing a vision for the future.

In addition, the principal oversees and works with the Treasurer to ensure sound management in all fiscal and facility operations. The principal serves as the chief spokesperson for the academy and as the Executive Secretary for the School Board.

That's a long paragraph; we can keep as
.

We need to preserve all. We'll put each as
- . For the sublist of committees, we could embed as nested
or just list them as separate items. The instruction: Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we can have a top-level
for responsibilities, and within that, for the chairs committees we could have a nested . That's fine.
Qualifications (Required Qualifications):
Paragraph: "Candidates must be practicing members of the Seventh-day Adventist Church and should possess an advanced degree in Educational Administration and Leadership or in an appropriate content area. An MA, Med, or Ed.S. is desirable. They must hold, or be eligible to hold, the appropriate regular teacher and administrative certificates as issued by the North American Division’s Office of Education of Seventh-day Adventists. The selected candidate will have three or more years of successful administrative leadership at the Academy (high school) level, with strong verbal, written, and interpersonal skills. The candidate is a proven instructional leader, capable of helping teachers achieve appropriate academic outcomes, and must have a demonstrated ability to use appropriate data in decision-making. Experience with institutional fundraising and development is required, and experience with minority student populations is a plus. The selected candidate will need to complete a Live Scan and obtain background check clearance."
Also we have PHYSICAL DEMANDS and ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS. Those could be part of Qualifications or separate sections. Since we have no explicit Skills section, we could include Physical Demands and Environmental Conditions under Qualifications or as separate sections like Requirements. But we have headings list includes Requirements and Qualifications. We could use Requirements for physical/environmental, and Qualifications for education/experience. However we already used Qualifications for education/experience. Let's decide: Use Requirements for physical demands and environmental conditions (since they are requirements). Use Qualifications for education, experience, certifications, etc.
Thus:
Requirements section: includes PHYSICAL DEMANDS list and ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS paragraph.
Physical Demands: "Standing, sitting, fine motor dexterity, talking, hearing, visual acuity, packing, lifting, carrying, and reaching."
Environmental Conditions: "The noise level in the work environment is usually moderate. Extended hours and travel may occasionally be required. Reasonable accommodation may be made to enable individuals with disabilities to perform the essential functions. Standard office conditions."
We need to preserve all. We'll format Physical Demands as - each item? It's a comma-separated list; we can split into items. Environmental Conditions as
.
Benefits: From Compensation section: "The position has a salary, within the range listed above, and benefits that are in keeping with the compensation structure of the Southern California Conference of Seventh-day Adventists and the Pacific Union Conference of Seventh-day Adventists. The compensation structure includes a full range of employee benefits, including major medical, dental and vision. Reasonable accommodations may be made to enable individuals with disabilities to perform the essential functions."
We already have Reasonable accommodations mentioned also in Environmental Conditions; but we keep.
Pay: Salary range: "$77,402 to $86,737". Also mention that salary within range.
Schedule: "Full-Time". Also maybe mention Administrative Full-Time.
Deadline: "Resumes are accepted until April 16, 2026, or until position is filled. Candidates selected for an interview may be required to interview in person." This is application instruction; we must remove application instructions per rule: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." So we should omit deadline and interview instructions. So we do not include that.
Also we should remove duplicated lines like "Compensation $77,402 to $86,737" appears multiple times; we keep only once in Pay section.
Now we need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown.
