Paraeducator - SpEd-SLC

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings

for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

  for prose. Do NOT repeat job title as heading. Do NOT put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, application instructions. Preserve all substantive info. We need to decide which sections have real content. From posting: - Position: Para-SpEd-SLC Location: Lexington Elementary School Position Details: 6.50 hrs/day, 8:30am to 3:30pm; 188 days/year. Potential reduction hours due to Wednesday early release, early dismissals for parent conferences, holidays, and last day of school; reduction hours subject to change. Job assignment and/or building assignment are subject to change based on program needs determined by the district. So we have schedule info: hours per day, times, days per year, potential reduction hours. That's schedule. - Pay Range: PSE 1 Salary Schedule. That's pay info. - Benefits: This position is eligible for medical, dental, vision, life, and disability insurance in accordance with the School Employee Benefits Board rules and regulations. Information about benefits offered can be found HERE. Paid time off and other benefits are offered in accordance with the Collective Bargaining Agreement with the Public School Employees of Kelso Chapter #1 found HERE. School employees | Washington State Health Care Authority So benefits content. - Essential Functions (list of duties). Those are responsibilities. - Qualifications (list). Those are qualifications. - Other Functions: Perform all other duties as assigned (maybe part of responsibilities). Bargaining Unit Affiliation: Public School Employees of Kelso Chapter #1 (PSE 1). Responsible To: School Principal/Director of Special Programs. - Education: Be at least eighteen years of age, hold a high school diploma and/or equivalent, AND must meet at least one of the following options: ... (list). Also Must complete training on the Fundamental Course of Study within the timelines described in RCW 28A.413.070 in years that the program is funded by the legislature. - There's also "Other Functions" etc. - There's also "Bargaining Unit Affiliation" and "Responsible To". Could be part of Qualifications or maybe separate but not required headings. We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content. So we can have sections: About the role (maybe a brief prose summarizing position?), Responsibilities (Essential Functions), Qualifications (including Education?), Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Possibly Skills? Not explicit. We need to avoid filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We need to use

  for section headings. We need to use

  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So for Responsibilities list, Qualifications list, Benefits list, maybe Education options list. We need to use

    for prose. We must not repeat job title as heading. So no

    Para-SpEd-SLC

    . We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. We need to remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The posting includes a lot of EEO statement, nondiscrimination, contact info, CTE, drug-free workplace. Those are boilerplate; we should remove them. Also remove "School employees | Washington State Health Care Authority" maybe part of benefits but it's a reference; we can keep as part of benefits? It's a line: "School employees | Washington State Health Care Authority". Might be considered boilerplate? It's referencing benefits source. Might keep as part of benefits but it's not essential detail? It says "School employees | Washington State Health Care Authority". Could be considered a reference; but we can keep as part of benefits description. However it's not a list; it's a phrase. We'll keep as part of benefits paragraph. Also remove duplicated lines: there may be duplicates like "School employees | Washington State Health Care Authority" appears once; okay. Now we need to decide what to include in each section. About the role: Could be a short prose summarizing the position: Para-SpEd-SLC at Lexington Elementary School, assisting special education teacher, etc. But we must not invent details; we can use the position details and essential functions to craft a prose summary. However we must preserve all substantive information; we can paraphrase but not omit details. Safer to put the essential functions as a list under Responsibilities, and maybe include a brief paragraph about the role using the position details (location, hours). That is not inventing; it's just restating. Thus:

    About the role

    Para-SpEd-SLC position at Lexington Elementary School, working 6.5 hours per day from 8:30 am to 3:30 pm for 188 days per year, with possible hour reductions on Wednesdays, parent‑conference days, holidays, and the last day of school. Assignment may change based on district program needs.

    That's fine. Responsibilities: list of essential functions. We need to extract each bullet from "Essential Functions". The text: Essential Functions To assist the special education teacher in maintaining necessary recordsUndertake with the timely submission of IEPs and progress reports and documentation of provision of services related to an IEPAssist in daily hygiene activities, including personal care (toileting, grooming etc.) for students with disabilities, if neededSupervise students in the cafeteria, classroom, on school grounds and in the community as neededTake all necessary and reasonable precautions to protect students, equipment, materials, and facilitiesAssist in upholding and enforcing school rules, administrative regulations, and board policiesMust have regular and consistent attendance It seems missing punctuation; we need to split into separate duties. Let's parse: - Assist the special education teacher in maintaining necessary records - Undertake with the timely submission of IEPs and progress reports and documentation of provision of services related to an IEP - Assist in daily hygiene activities, including personal care (toileting, grooming etc.) for students with disabilities, if needed - Supervise students in the cafeteria, classroom, on school grounds and in the community as needed - Take all necessary and reasonable precautions to protect students, equipment, materials, and facilities - Assist in upholding and enforcing school rules, administrative regulations, and board policies - Must have regular and consistent attendance We'll make
    • for each. Qualifications: list from "Qualifications". The text: Qualifications Demonstrated awareness and appreciation of diversity among individual students and the ability to set appropriate expectations for individual studentsMust possess valid first aid and CPR cards (or obtain upon employment) and be willing to keep cards currentMust possess valid CPI training (or obtain upon employment)Previous experience or training in working with students with disabilities preferredMust have physical ability to lift, position and/or transfer students (with assistance as may be required) up to 21 years of ageDemonstrated ability to work cooperatively with teachers, parents and students with disabilitiesDemonstrated ability to work as a team member and be able to project a positive, friendly and caring attitude toward othersDemonstrated ability and willingness to participate in activities and responsibilities as assigned by the classroom teacherDemonstrated ability to work independently under the direction of the classroom teacher, while accepting direction and constructive criticismDemonstrated ability to handle confidential matters appropriately and ethicallyDemonstrated ability to work with student records and data collectionAbility to effectively supervise students in all school areasWillingness to participate in classroom team meetings, in-service offerings and local workshopsDemonstrated ability to use proper grammar and spelling in written and oral communication and be able to communicate effectively both verbally and in writingAbility to use multiple communication systems such as email, computers, document readers, and smart boardsNeat, clean personal appearance and personal traits that make him/her a good role model for students; work apparel should be appropriate for a professional and safe work environment We need to split into separate qualifications. Let's list: - Demonstrated awareness and appreciation of diversity among individual students and the ability to set appropriate expectations for individual students - Must possess valid first aid and CPR cards (or obtain upon employment) and be willing to keep cards current - Must possess valid CPI training (or obtain upon employment) - Previous experience or training in working with students with disabilities preferred - Must have physical ability to lift, position and/or transfer students (with assistance as may be required) up to 21 years of age - Demonstrated ability to work cooperatively with teachers, parents and students with disabilities - Demonstrated ability to work as a team member and be able to project a positive, friendly and caring attitude toward others - Demonstrated ability and willingness to participate in activities and responsibilities as assigned by the classroom teacher - Demonstrated ability to work independently under the direction of the classroom teacher, while accepting direction and constructive criticism - Demonstrated ability to handle confidential matters appropriately and ethically - Demonstrated ability to work with student records and data collection - Ability to effectively supervise students in all school areas - Willingness to participate in classroom team meetings, in-service offerings and local workshops - Demonstrated ability to use proper grammar and spelling in written and oral communication and be able to communicate effectively both verbally and in writing - Ability to use multiple communication systems such as email, computers, document readers, and smart boards - Neat, clean personal appearance and personal traits that make him/her a good role model for students; work apparel should be appropriate for a professional and safe work environment We'll put these as
      • . Education: separate section maybe under Qualifications? But we have a heading "Education". Could be part of Qualifications but we can make a separate section "Education". However the instruction says use headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Education is not listed; but we could incorporate education into Qualifications. However we have a lot of education details; we could put them under Qualifications as part of list. But the instruction says "Use

        for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It's examples, not exhaustive; we could still use Education if we want, but better to follow the given list. Since Education is not in the list, we could incorporate into Qualifications. However we have a separate "Education" block with specific requirements. Might be better to create a "Qualifications" section that includes both the qualifications list and education requirements. But we need to avoid thin sections; we could have Qualifications include both the ability list and education list as sub-items. That's fine. Thus Qualifications section will contain two sub-lists? But we can just have one list combining all qualification items, including education items. However the education items are conditional: must be at least 18, hold HS diploma or equivalent, AND must meet at least one of the following options: list. We need to preserve that logic. We can write as prose or list. Better to keep Qualifications as list of ability/skill items, and then maybe a separate "Education" heading? But the instruction says we can use headings for sections like those examples; it doesn't forbid other headings, but says "Use

        for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It implies we should use those headings when appropriate; but we could also add Education if we want, but maybe better to stick to the list. However the education details are substantive; we need to preserve them. If we don't have a heading for Education, we could put them under Qualifications as a sub-list with a preamble. That's
