We need to decide which sections to include: About the role (maybe summary), Responsibilities (essential duties), Requirements (qualifications?), Qualifications (maybe same as Requirements?), Skills (language, computer, mathematical, reasoning, other skills), Benefits (none given), Pay (salary info), Schedule (work schedules vary). The instruction: include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text. So we need to see if we have specific content for each. We have Salary specific: starting annual salary no less than $62,957 for 2026-27. That's specific enough for Pay section. Schedule: "Work schedules vary with the school and teaching assignment. Work may be performed after school hours, as necessary." That's specific enough for Schedule. Benefits: Not mentioned. So we should NOT include Benefits section. About the role: Could use Summary as about the role. That's specific. Responsibilities: Essential Duties And Responsibilities list. Requirements: Could be Qualifications (Education, Experience, Certificates). Might combine Education/Experience and Certificates as Requirements. Skills: Language, Computer, Mathematical, Reasoning, Other skills. We need to avoid duplication. Also we need to not repeat job title as heading. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. We'll produce sections in order: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Skills, Pay, Schedule. Each section:

      About the role

      then

      ...

      or
      • for lists. For About the role: use the Summary paragraph (maybe two sentences). We'll combine. Responsibilities: list each duty as
      • . Need to extract each sentence from Essential Duties And Responsibilities block. Let's parse: "Plan and implement a program of study based on the curriculum guide. Teachers may employ a variety of instructional techniques consistent with the needs, interests and capabilities of the students. Establish a classroom environment that is conducive to learning. Assess student progress on a regular and consistent basis. Teach School Board approved curriculum and participate in regular curriculum review and rewriting processes. Meet and instruct assigned classes in the locations and at the times designated. Create a classroom environment that is conducive to learning and appropriate to the maturity and interest of the students. Encourage students to set and maintain standards of classroom behavior. Guide the learning process toward the achievement of curriculum goals and — in harmony with the goals — establish clear objectives for all lessons, units, and projects and to communicate these objectives to students. Work cooperatively with and special education staff to implement program and student IEP (Individualized Education Prescription). Evaluate student academic progress; keep appropriate records and prepare interim reports, report cards. Available to conference with students and parents for education-related purposes at a mutually agreeable time. Maintain accurate, complete and correct records, as required by law, Board policy and school administrative requirements. Submit reports and grades on a timely basis. Maintain and improve professional competence through staff development activities provided by the school district as well as self-selected professional growth activities. Serve as member of department/building teams or committees, as needed." Note there is duplicate "Establish a classroom environment..." appears twice (once early, later). We should keep both? Might be duplicate but we can keep as separate items; but better to deduplicate? The instruction: Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Duplicate lines are part of the posting; we should keep them? It says remove duplicated lines (under "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions.") So we should remove duplicated lines. So we need to deduplicate identical lines. The duplicate "Establish a classroom environment that is conducive to learning." appears twice; we should keep only one. Also "Establish a classroom environment that is conducive to learning and appropriate to the maturity and interest of the students." is slightly different (adds "and appropriate to the maturity and interest of the students.") So not duplicate. Thus we will list unique items. Let's list them: 1. Plan and implement a program of study based on the curriculum guide. 2. Teachers may employ a variety of instructional techniques consistent with the needs, interests and capabilities of the students. 3. Establish a classroom environment that is conducive to learning. 4. Assess student progress on a regular and consistent basis. 5. Teach School Board approved curriculum and participate in regular curriculum review and rewriting processes. 6. Meet and instruct assigned classes in the locations and at the times designated. 7. Create a classroom environment that is conducive to learning and appropriate to the maturity and interest of the students. 8. Encourage students to set and maintain standards of classroom behavior. 9. Guide the learning process toward the achievement of curriculum goals and — in harmony with the goals — establish clear objectives for all lessons, units, and projects and to communicate these objectives to students. 10. Work cooperatively with special education staff to implement program and student IEP (Individualized Education Prescription). (Note original had "Work cooperatively with and special education staff" seems typo; we fix to "with special education staff"). 11. Evaluate student academic progress; keep appropriate records and prepare interim reports, report cards. 12. Available to conference with students and parents for education-related purposes at a mutually agreeable time. 13. Maintain accurate, complete and correct records, as required by law, Board policy and school administrative requirements. 14. Submit reports and grades on a timely basis. 15. Maintain and improve professional competence through staff development activities provided by the school district as well as self-selected professional growth activities. 16. Serve as member of department/building teams or committees, as needed. That's 16 items. Marginal Job Duties: could be included under Responsibilities? Might be separate but we could add as another bullet under Responsibilities or maybe as its own subsection? The instruction: Use
        • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we could combine essential duties and marginal duties into one list? But maybe better to keep separate sections? However we only have headings for Responsibilities; we could include marginal duties as part of Responsibilities list. It's still duties. So we can add bullet: "Participate in extra-curricular activities in the school community with students (may include volunteer time to work with students on school projects, serving on committees or participating in the sponsorship of student activities, either as a volunteer or by supplemental contract)." Supervisory Responsibilities: also duties; could be included under Responsibilities as well. But maybe we could create a separate section? Not in allowed headings list. So we incorporate into Responsibilities. Thus Responsibilities list will include essential duties, marginal duties, supervisory responsibilities. Let's extract supervisory responsibilities sentences: "Supervises classroom and students, in accordance with the Discipline Code. May also coordinate the work of classroom instructional assistants. On occasion, supervise the activities of volunteers. Take all reasonable precautions to protect students, district equipment, materials and facilities." We'll add those as bullets. Now Requirements section: include Education And Experience, Certificates, Licenses, Registrations, Confidentiality? Confidentiality maybe under Skills? But it's a requirement. We'll include under Requirements. Education And Experience: "Bachelors' or advanced degree from an accredited institution; successful completion of a student teaching experience. Demonstrated high academic achievement – minimum 3.0 on a 4 pt. scale." Certificates: "Valid Pennsylvania Instructional Level I or II Grades PK-4 or Elementary K-6 certification required; current PA criminal record, FBI fingerprinting and PA child abuse clearances." Confidentiality: "Respects and maintains the confidentiality of student records, personal communication and family background at all time." We could make each as separate bullet. Now Skills section: include Language Skills, Computer Skills, Mathematical Skills, Reasoning Ability, Other Skills And Abilities. We need to list each ability as bullet. Language Skills bullets: - Ability to read, analyze, and interpret general business periodicals, professional journals, technical procedures, or governmental regulations. - Ability to write reports, business correspondence, and procedure manuals. - Ability to effectively present information and respond to questions from groups of managers, clients, customers, and the general public. -
