We must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate like EEO, legal, etc. Must preserve all substantive info. We need to parse the posting. Key info: - Position: Paraeducator II - Elementary Transitional Learning Center (TLC), 6.5 hrs/day (.8125 FTE), Part Time, Permanent - Background and experience working with children with social and emotional difficulties strongly preferred* - First round of interviews will be conducted by a review of applicants' video submissions.* - Position Summary: The incumbent performs a variety of instructional, training, and/or support duties to assist Special Education teachers in instruction, supervision, and education of students with severe physical and mental special needs that generally require placement in self-contained classrooms.

We'll include the schedule. - Retirement Plan Contributions: North Clackamas School District participates in the Oregon Public Employee Retirement System (PERS and OPSRP) on behalf of its employees. The district contributes the employer portion; there is also a mandatory employee portion.

Part-time employees working at least six months and 600 hours in a calendar year will qualify. - SCHEDULE: 7:15 a.m. - 2:15 p.m.; Subject to change depending on department needs. - WORK CALENDAR: 180 days - Minimum Qualifications: list many bullet-like statements (each preceded by "Able to ..." etc). We need to format as
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So Minimum Qualifications is a list of requirements. We'll put under Requirements or Qualifications? The instruction: Use headings for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide where each piece goes. - About the role: Could be Position Summary. - Responsibilities: Major Duties And Responsibilities. - Requirements: Minimum Qualifications. - Qualifications: Desired Qualifications. - Skills: maybe combine some skill statements from Minimum Qualifications? But we can also put skill list under Skills. - Benefits: Retirement Plan Contributions maybe also other benefits? Not much else. Could include retirement. - Pay: Wage schedule. - Schedule: Work schedule and calendar. We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". We have actual content for Pay (wage schedule) and Schedule (hours, work calendar). Benefits: retirement plan contributions is substantive. We need to ensure we don't repeat content unnecessarily. Let's extract: About the role (Position Summary): The incumbent performs a variety of instructional, training, and/or support duties to assist Special Education teachers in instruction, supervision, and education of students with severe physical and mental special needs that generally require placement in self-contained classrooms. The incumbent may also be assigned in one-on-one teacher-to-student situations when the students have needs similar to those of Structured Learning Center classrooms (e.g., physical disabilities requiring considerable support). Also maybe include background preference? Could be part of About the role: "Background and experience working with children with social and emotional difficulties strongly preferred". Also first round interviews via video submissions. Might be part of About the role or maybe separate but we can include in About the role. Responsibilities (Major Duties And Responsibilities): list many duties. We'll need to convert each sentence into
  • . Let's parse: - Works collaboratively by assisting teachers and specialists in assessment, curriculum implementation, student interactions, student intervention, enforcing safe behaviors, and enhancing social and life skills growth of students. Assistance is typically provided in special education Structured Learning Center (SLC), Transitional Learning Center (TLC), Adult Transition Program (ATP) classrooms or in regular education classrooms to students with similar one-on-one special needs. - Provides complex toileting, feeding, mobility, and personal hygiene-related duties for students requiring such help. - May independent living skills such as cooking, laundry, general personal hygiene and cleanliness. (Seems grammar off; maybe "May assist with independent living skills such as cooking, laundry, general personal hygiene and cleanliness." We'll keep as is.) - May take action, or assist in taking action, to de-escalate students who are at risk of harming themselves or others by following school/district-approved procedures. - Provides instructional support and tutoring to students in large groups, small groups, and one-on-one situations. - Implements behavior support and intervention plans as directed by a teacher.

We'll need to split into sensible list items. Could combine some sentences but keep each duty as separate
  • . Ensure we preserve all substantive info. Requirements (Minimum Qualifications): list of statements each starting with "Able to ..." or similar. Let's extract: - Incumbents must have successful experience in working with culturally diverse families and communities, or have otherwise demonstrated a commitment to strengthening engagement of a diverse community and skill in communicating with a diverse population. - Successful completion of an Associate's Degree, or two years of post-high school education. The education requirement may be substituted at the sole discretion of the District by successfully passing the written Educational Testing Service competency examination. - Able to be certified or to become certified in first aid, CPR, and/or operation of defibrillators. - Able to be trained in instructional and behavior intervention methodologies in such content areas as reading, writing, and mathematics, and in such areas as student restraint, safety, medication, and physical management and intervention systems. - Possess strong interpersonal skills and ability to work effectively and collaboratively as a team member. - Able to work in an environment with frequent interruptions and changing tasks and priorities. - Able to assist, console, and manage students who may be emotional, distraught, or frustrated. - Able to remain calm, focused and in control when working with students, parents, guardians, and community members who may be upset. - Able to follow written and verbal directions and take the initiative to seek clarity and take action when needed. - Be or become knowledgeable and supportive of classroom management and student discipline procedures. - Possess effective and accurate command of the English language. - Able to organize work and set priorities for accomplishing work in a timely and effective manner. - Able to protect the confidentiality of student information consistent with FERPA requirements and good judgment. - Able to work collaboratively and effectively with staff, students, parents, volunteers, and community members. - Ability to communicate effectively verbally and in writing. - Skill in the use of office and computer equipment and use of standard office software and student information system software. We'll turn each into
  • . Qualifications (Desired Qualifications): - Bachelor Degree in an appropriate and related field of study. - Two years of experience that demonstrates the ability to work successfully with children in a learning environment. - Bilingual and bicultural skills. - Familiarity, or willingness and ability to be trained in areas of Down syndrome, Autism, multiple disabilities, mental health disorders, ADHD, etc. Skills: Could be derived from Minimum Qualifications but we might not need separate Skills if content overlaps. However instruction says prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. We could combine Skills into Requirements or Qualifications. But we have to use headings only when posting has real specific content for it. We have content for Skills? The posting includes many skill statements; we could treat them as Skills. But we already have Requirements (minimum qualifications) and Qualifications (desired). Might be redundant to have Skills separate. However we could place skill-based statements under Skills and keep Requirements for education/experience etc. Let's decide: - Requirements: education, experience, certification, etc. - Skills: interpersonal, communication, organization, confidentiality, teamwork, etc. - Qualifications: desired (bachelor, bilingual, etc.) But we need to ensure we don't duplicate content. Let's split: Minimum Qualifications includes both education/experience and skill statements. We'll separate: Requirements (hard requirements): - Successful completion of an Associate's Degree, or two years of post-high school education (or substitution via test). - Able to be certified or to become certified in first aid, CPR, and/or operation of defibrillators. - Able to be trained in instructional and behavior intervention methodologies in such content areas as reading, writing, and mathematics, and in such areas as student restraint, safety, medication, and physical management and intervention systems. - Possess strong interpersonal skills and ability to work effectively and collaboratively as a team member. - Able to work in an environment with frequent interruptions and changing tasks and priorities. - Able to assist, console, and manage students who may be emotional, distraught, or frustrated. - Able to remain calm, focused and in control when working with students, parents, guardians, and community members who may be upset. - Able to follow written and verbal directions and take the initiative to seek clarity and take action when needed. - Be or become knowledgeable and supportive of classroom management and student discipline procedures. - Possess effective and accurate command of the English language. - Able to organize work and set priorities for accomplishing work in a timely and effective manner. - Able to protect the confidentiality of student information consistent with FERPA requirements and good judgment. - Able to work collaboratively and effectively with staff, students, parents, volunteers, and community members. - Ability to communicate effectively verbally and in writing. - Skill in the use of office and computer equipment and use of standard office software and student information system software. But many of those are skills. Hmm. Maybe better: Requirements: education/experience and certification. Skills: interpersonal, communication, organization, etc. Qualifications: desired. Let's extract education/experience/certification: - Successful completion of an Associate's Degree, or two years of post-high school education
