Paraeducator - Non-Mainstream Special Education - Structured Program

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually we need to use headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must include only sections where posting has real specific content. We need to extract content. Let's parse the posting. Key info: - Position Hours And Pay: This position is for 6.5 hours per day at 178 days per year. 7 hours per day for 4 days for the first year and 2 days each year following until certification is completed. Position pay: PSE Salary Schedule Lev5 - $ 25.40 Thus we have schedule (hours per day, days per year, variations) and pay. - Important Information: Official Hire Date, Required Training (Right Response Training within 3-5 months, renewal annually, Autism Spectrum Disorder course within 3 months, Fundamental Course of Studies (FCS) and General Paraeducator Certificate of state mandated Paraeducator Certificate Program per State requirements, Paraeducator Certificate Program dependent upon State funding).

We need to remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, application instructions. Also remove Non-Discrimination Policy? That's EEO/equal-opportunity boilerplate; we should remove it. Also remove "Application Procedure". Also remove "PSE UNIT AFFILIATION Paraeducator/Special Services Wages And Benefits Click here to access details on the following: Salaries/Wages Insurance Retirement Plans Paid Time Off or Vacation Paid Holidays Other Compensation" - that's a link to benefits details; but we don't have actual benefits content; we should not create Benefits section unless posting actually states them. The posting only mentions a link but not actual benefits details. So we should not include Benefits section. Pay: we have pay info: PSE Salary Schedule Lev5 - $ 25.40. That's specific. So we can include Pay section. Schedule: we have hours per day, days per year, variations. So we can include Schedule section. Responsibilities: we have description and essential functions duties. So we can include Responsibilities section. Requirements: we have federal minimum employment requirements (age, diploma, one of options). Also Required Training etc. Could be under Requirements or Qualifications. The instruction says use headings like Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide what to put where. Likely Requirements: federal minimum employment requirements, required training, certifications. Qualifications: education and experience, knowledge, skills, abilities. Skills: maybe the Required Knowledge, Skills And Abilities section. But we could combine. We must not repeat job title as heading. Not include Job ID. We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep details as much as possible, but we can format as lists. We need to avoid filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We need to output only HTML fragment, no html/body tags, no markdown. Thus produce something like:

Schedule

We need to ensure we don't create sections with placeholder text. All content must be from posting. Let's extract specifics. Schedule: - "This position is for 6.5 hours per day at 178 days per year." - "7 hours per day for 4 days for the first year and 2 days each year following until certification is completed." Interpretation: maybe base schedule is 6.5 hrs/day, 178 days/year. Additionally, for first year: 7 hours per day for 4 days (maybe per week?) and 2 days each year following until certification completed. This is confusing but we must preserve as is. We'll combine into a paragraph. Pay: - "Position pay: PSE Salary Schedule Lev5 - $ 25.40" Responsibilities: We have description paragraph and then "ESSENTIAL FUNCTIONS Duties Depending upon individual assignment, the Paraeducator - Non-Mainstream Special Education may perform all or a combination of several of the following duties:" then a long list of duties each starting with a verb. We need to extract each duty as list items. Let's copy the duties list: - Instructs moderately to severely handicapped students individually or in small groups in a variety of learning activities to promote student understanding of materials presented. - Provides encouragement, reinforcement and achievement of educational objectives and goals defined by certificated staff. - Assists in the administration of objective tests or other measurements. - Communicates with certificated staff concerning individual student progress; adjusts methods to meet the needs of a wide variety of students; consults with certificated staff concerning remediation or enrichment activities. - Assists certificated staff in maintaining records, logs, charts, assignments and other records for assessment of student progress. - Attends to student physical and safety needs; monitors students for medical risks such as seizures and behaviors that may result in harm to themselves or others. - Corrects behaviors and maintains discipline according to established policies and procedures. - Assists students with toileting, which may include catheterization and diapering; attends to the personal hygiene needs of students. - Assists students in washing hands and face, brushing teeth and hair, and taking showers. - Assists students with interpersonal and personal skills mastery; helps feed students and teaches social aspects of eating with others. - Assists students with basic living skills and pre-vocational activities. - Works with students to develop communication skills; facilitates integration of students with age-group peers to the extent possible. - Establishes and maintains effective communication with students, staff and parents for student progress and safety, and community relations. - Provides physical assistance to students, such as lifting or positioning. - Uses adaptive equipment to communicate with students; follows and documents procedures established by physical therapist. - Monitors need for first aid for students and refers for treatment as appropriate. - Maintains cleanliness and hygiene of classroom, implements and equipment.

May serve on various district committees and/or departmental work teams. Models appropriate and cooperative behavior, including protecting confidential information, consistent with district ethical guidelines. Performs related duties consistent with the scope and intent of the position. We need to split "Other Functions" into separate items maybe. We'll treat each sentence as separate bullet. But we must not lose any detail. We'll create a

with
• for each duty. We also have "Reporting Relationships" and "Mental Demands", "Physical Demands". Those could be under Requirements or Qualifications? They are more about job demands. Could be under Requirements? But we have separate headings: Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. Perhaps we can put Mental and Physical Demands under Requirements? Or maybe under Qualifications? The instruction says use those headings 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 section headings. It doesn't say we cannot add other headings, but better to stick to those. However we have content like Reporting Relationships, Mental Demands, Physical Demands, Minimum Qualifications Education and Experience, Required Knowledge, Skills And Abilities, Licenses/Special Requirements. We need to fit them into the allowed headings. We could map: - Requirements: federal minimum employment requirements, required training (Right Response, Autism Spectrum Disorder course, FCS, General Paraeducator Certificate), Licenses/Special Requirements (fingerprinting, background check, infection control, first aid/CPR, Hepatitis-B immunization). Also maybe Reporting Relationships? Not exactly. - Qualifications: Education and Experience (including preferred experience, specific trainings like Non-violent crisis intervention, PECS, etc.), Minimum Qualifications Education and Experience (the paragraph). Also maybe the "Education, training, skills, and experience necessary to carry out the assignment, with experience working with school age children and special needs preferred." plus the list of specific trainings. - Skills: Required Knowledge, Skills And Abilities list. We also have "Other Functions" which could be part of Responsibilities. We also have "Reporting Relationships" maybe could be under Responsibilities? Or we could add a separate heading like "Reporting" but not allowed. Could incorporate into Responsibilities as a bullet. Similarly Mental Demands and Physical Demands could be under Requirements? They are more about job demands; but
