Paraeducator - Elementary - Resource Support Program (RSP)

We need to output HTML fragment only, with headings

for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. Must not repeat job title. Must not include Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate, navigation, EEO, etc. Must preserve all substantive info. We need to parse the posting. POSITION SUMMARY: description of role. Could be "About the role". Use

About the role

then

with summary. ESSENTIAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES: list of duties. Use

Responsibilities

then

• each duty. Other Responsibilities: also list. Required Qualifications: Education and Experience, Additional Requirements. Could be under Requirements or Qualifications. We have sections: Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. We need to decide mapping. The posting includes: Required Qualifications (Education and Experience, Additional Requirements). Preferred Qualifications. Condition Of Employment (list of items). Knowledge Of ... Ability To ... (these are knowledge, skills, abilities). Also REQUIRED KNOWLEDGE, SKILLS AND ABILITIES RELATED TO CULTURAL COMPETENCE AND EQUITY. Physical Demands, Work Conditions, Work Schedule, Reporting Relationships, Representation, Level Of Compensation, Classification History, Disclaimer etc. We need to include sections only if they have real specific content. We should include About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (maybe combine Education/Experience and Additional Requirements), Qualifications (maybe Preferred Qualifications?), Skills (maybe Knowledge/Abilities?), Benefits (none? Not mentioned), Pay (Level Of Compensation mentions Paraeducator position on the PSE Salary Schedule - that is specific enough? It says "Paraeducator position on the PSE Salary Schedule." That's a statement about pay but not specific numbers. It's still specific content: indicates pay schedule. Should we include Pay section? The instruction: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. It does state Level Of Compensation: "Paraeducator position on the PSE Salary Schedule." That's stating pay schedule. So we can include Pay section with that sentence. Schedule: Work Schedule: "This is a school year assignment. Hours and days will vary from school to school." That's specific content. So include Schedule section. Benefits: Not mentioned. So omit. Now we need to decide headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We'll include About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (education/experience + additional requirements), Qualifications (preferred qualifications?), Skills (knowledge, abilities, cultural competence, physical demands?, maybe combine knowledge/skills/abilities). But we need to avoid duplication. Let's extract content. About the role: POSITION SUMMARY paragraph. Responsibilities: ESSENTIAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES list (including bullet points). Also "Other Responsibilities" list. We'll combine both under Responsibilities. Requirements: Education and Experience (Required Qualifications) plus Additional Requirements (proficient in basic spelling, math and grammar skills; Experienced and/or training in reading instruction, remediation, and assessment). Also Condition Of Employment items? Those could be under Requirements or Qualifications. Condition Of Employment includes: Pass a criminal background check; Complete the District's Paraeducator Core Competency requirements; Possess and maintain CPR/first aid; Successfully complete Right Response training; Work scheduled hours on a consistent basis; Knowledge Of ... Ability To ... Actually those are knowledge/skills/abilities. Might be better to put them under Skills or Qualifications. We have separate sections: Requirements (maybe education/experience), Qualifications (maybe preferred qualifications), Skills (knowledge/skills/abilities). Let's follow typical job posting: Requirements = mandatory qualifications (education, experience, certifications). Qualifications = preferred qualifications. Skills = abilities, knowledge. Thus: Requirements: Education and Experience (High School Diploma or Equivalent AND one of the following: AA degree, OR HS diploma + 48 college-level semester credits or 72 quarter credits, OR HS diploma + pass state approved paraeducator assessment test). Additional Requirements: Proficient in basic spelling, math and grammar skills; Experienced and/or training in reading instruction, remediation, and assessment. Also Condition Of Employment items like background check, CPR, Right Response training, etc. Those are also mandatory conditions. Could be included under Requirements as well. We'll include them under Requirements. Qualifications: Preferred Qualifications: Experience working with students in grades K-5. Skills: Knowledge Of ... Ability To ... (list of knowledge areas) plus REQUIRED KNOWLEDGE, SKILLS AND ABILITIES RELATED TO CULTURAL COMPETENCE AND EQUITY plus Physical Demands? Physical demands maybe not skills but could be separate but we don't have a section for Physical Demands. Could we include under Skills? Might be okay but it's not skill. However we have no other section. Could we add a separate section? Not allowed unless we have heading from list. The allowed headings are only those eight. So we must fit everything into those. Physical Demands could go under Skills? Might be a stretch but we can include as part of Skills/Abilities. Or we could omit Physical Demands? But we must preserve ALL substantive information. So we need to include it somewhere. Perhaps we can put Physical Demands under Skills as a bullet list. Work Conditions also could go under Skills or maybe under Responsibilities? Not ideal. But we have to include it. Could we put under Skills as well? Might be okay. Work Schedule we already have separate Schedule section. Pay we have separate. Thus we will have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Pay, Schedule. We'll omit Benefits. Now we need to format. Let's extract each piece. About the role: The POSITION SUMMARY paragraph: "The Elementary Paraeducator is responsible for supervising and monitoring scholars in a variety of tasks throughout the day with specific oversite of the playground, crosswalk and breakfast/lunch areas. Under the direction of a supervising teacher, this position assists with the basic skills development of students that can include students with identified disabilities. Typically, the students will work in small groups or individually either within their regular classroom or in a special area devoted to individualized learning." We'll put that in

  . Responsibilities: list from ESSENTIAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES and Other Responsibilities. Let's list them: - Supervise and monitor students throughout the school day in accordance with the school and district policies. - Communicate concerns to the principal regarding any violations of safety standards or lack of cooperation on the part of students or drivers. - Help students problem solve and resolve conflicts. - Report safety hazards seen on campus to main office so appropriate action can be taken. - Assist students with opening food items, wiping up spills, and cleaning up their area. - Follow protocol when assisting an injured student. - Establish an environment that encourages appropriate behavior and redirect student behaviors that are not in line with the school behavior expectations. - Tutor individuals and/or groups in specific skills as directed by the teacher. - Assist the teacher in administering special instructional and or behavioral programs. - Plan daily/weekly with the teachers and other staff members servicing the same students. - Assist the teacher in the communicating with other building/district staff members and parents. - Inform the advising teacher to any observed problems or information regarding an individual student. - Perform instructional/tutorial assignments and keep records as directed by the supervising teacher. - Interact positively with students, parents, and staff.

We'll put each as

• . Requirements: Education and Experience + Additional Requirements + Condition Of Employment (background check, CPR, Right Response training, work scheduled hours, etc.) plus maybe knowledge of IEPs etc? Those are knowledge/skills. Let's list Requirements bullets: - High School Diploma or Equivalent - And one of the following: - AA degree, OR - High school diploma (or equivalent) and 48 college-level semester credits or 72 college-level quarter credits, OR - High school diploma (or equivalent) and pass the state approved paraeducator assessment test - Proficient in basic spelling, math and grammar skills - Experienced and/or training in reading instruction, remediation, and assessment - Pass a criminal background check - Complete the District's Paraeducator Core Competency requirements - Possess and maintain American Heart Association or American Red Cross CPR and first aid training - Successfully complete the FWPS district-approved Right Response training at the advanced level at the next available time; maintain current certification at the advanced level through an annual recertification class if assigned to a Resource Support position - Work scheduled hours on a consistent basis - Knowledge of Individual education plans (IEPs) - Procedures for the proper regulation of traffic and pedestrians and apply procedures as appropriate - Different learning styles and how to provide support for learning - English grammar and spelling - Basic math - Positive behavior interventions - Right Response and de-escalation techniques - School Board Policies But some of those are knowledge/skills; maybe they belong under Skills. However we already have a Skills section. To avoid duplication, we could put knowledge/abilities under Skills, and keep Requirements to just education/experience, certifications, background check, etc. Let's decide. The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could combine education/experience and certifications into Requirements, and put knowledge/skills/abilities into Skills. That seems reasonable. Thus Requirements bullets: - High School Diploma or Equivalent - And one of the following: - AA degree, OR - High school diploma (or equivalent) and 48 college-level semester credits or 72 college-level quarter credits, OR - High school diploma (or equivalent) and pass the state approved paraeducator assessment test - Proficient in basic spelling, math and grammar skills - Experienced and/or training in reading instruction, remediation, and assessment - Pass a criminal background check - Complete the District's Paraeducator Core Competency requirements - Possess and maintain American Heart Association or American Red Cross CPR and first aid training - Successfully complete the FWPS district-approved Right Response training at the advanced level; maintain current certification through annual recertification if assigned to a Resource Support position - Work scheduled hours on a consistent basis Now Qualifications: Preferred Qualifications: Experience working with students in grades K-5. Skills: Knowledge Of ... Ability To ... plus cultural competence, physical demands, work conditions. Let's extract knowledge/abilities list: From "Knowledge Of" section: - Knowledge Of Individual education plans (IEPs) - Procedures for the proper regulation of traffic and pedestrians and apply procedures as appropriate - Different learning styles and how to provide support for learning - English grammar and spelling - Basic math - Positive behavior interventions - Right Response and de-escalation techniques - School Board Policies From "Ability To" section (long list).
