Secondary Area 2 School_Paraprofessional, Title I (MLK HS) 2026-2027

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We need to parse the posting. Content: - Title: MLK HS is seeking an Title I Paraprofessional. The ideal candidate should be knowledgeable and have a strong desire to help students learn. The primary responsibility is to implement, deliver and promote high academic expectations to all students. The ideal candidate must work collaboratively with team members and must possess excellent written and verbal communication skills. This is a one (1) year position funded through the use of Title I funds. This position will end on or before June 30, 2027. The applicant accepting this position must apply for an available position and be recommended for a new position in order to continue employment with the DeKalb County School District for the 2026-2027 school year. Salary Grade/Schedule: Unified 108 Salary Schedules: Click Here The material contained herein is subject to change. All open positions offered by the DeKalb County School District are subject to specific job requirements. The DeKalb County School District is an equal opportunity employer, and all hiring decisions are subject to federal, state, and local employment laws and regulations. Then there is a separate block: Title: Paraprofessional Supports teachers in meeting the educational, behavioral, and social emotional needs of students in the classroom and community. Essential Functions (list of duties). Then Education And/Or Experience (requirements). Then date: 02/16/2026. We need to remove boilerplate: EEO, legal, cookie/navigation, etc. Also remove duplicated lines, application instructions (none). Also remove "Salary Grade/Schedule: Unified 108 Salary Schedules: Click Here" maybe we can include Pay if actual salary info? It says "Salary Grade/Schedule: Unified 108 Salary Schedules: Click Here". That's not a specific salary amount, just reference. According to rule: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. It states Salary Grade/Schedule but not actual pay. It's vague; maybe we should not include Pay section because it's not a concrete salary. The rule: "never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. 'commensurate with experience', 'not specified', 'N/A', 'varies', 'TBD')". Here it's "Unified 108 Salary Schedules: Click Here". That's placeholder. So we should not include Pay or Schedule sections. Benefits: none mentioned. Schedule: none mentioned (except one-year position, end date). Could we consider Schedule? The posting says "This is a one (1) year position funded through the use of Title I funds. This position will end on or before June 30, 2027." That's about duration, not schedule (hours). Not schedule. So we likely omit Schedule. Thus we may have sections: About the role (intro), Responsibilities (essential functions), Requirements (education/experience), Qualifications (maybe certificate?), Skills (communication, collaborative). But we must not create thin sections; prefer few substantive sections. Could combine some. We need to use

for section headings. Use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use

  for prose. We must preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. We need to decide what to include. Let's extract substantive info: About the role: "MLK HS is seeking an Title I Paraprofessional. The ideal candidate should be knowledgeable and have a strong desire to help students learn. The primary responsibility is to implement, deliver and promote high academic expectations to all students. The ideal candidate must work collaboratively with team members and must possess excellent written and verbal communication skills. This is a one (1) year position funded through the use of Title I funds. This position will end on or before June 30, 2027. The applicant accepting this position must apply for an available position and be recommended for a new position in order to continue employment with the DeKalb County School District for the 2026-2027 school year." That's prose. Responsibilities: list of essential functions (many bullet-like sentences). We'll put them as

  • . Requirements: Education And/Or Experience: list of options. Qualifications: maybe "A valid Professional Standards Commission-approved paraprofessional certificate is required." Also maybe "High school diploma or GED and pass the GACE Paraprofessional Assessment, required." That's part of requirements. Could treat as qualifications. Skills: "excellent written and verbal communication skills", "work collaboratively with team members". Also maybe "knowledgeable". Could be skills. We need to avoid duplication. Let's structure:

    About the role

    ... (the intro paragraph)

    Responsibilities

    • ... each essential function

    Requirements

    • ... education/experience options

    Qualifications

    A valid Professional Standards Commission-approved paraprofessional certificate is required.

    Skills

    • Excellent written and verbal communication skills
    • Ability to work collaboratively with team members
    • Knowledgeable and strong desire to help students learn
    We must ensure we don't include filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. Check for any other substantive info: "Title: Paraprofessional Supports teachers in meeting the educational, behavioral, and social emotional needs of students in the classroom and community." That's essentially a summary of role; could be part of About the role. Already covered. We should not repeat the job title as heading; we already didn't. We must not include Job ID/requisition numbers; none. We must remove boilerplate: EEO, legal, etc. Already omitted. Check for duplicated lines: The intro includes "The ideal candidate must work collaboratively with team members and must possess excellent written and verbal communication skills." That's similar to skills list; but we keep both? Might be duplication but we can keep in About the role and also in Skills; but maybe better to not duplicate. However rule: Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Duplication is okay if it's in original; but we could avoid duplication by not repeating in Skills if already covered. However Skills section should capture skills; we could keep it but it's okay to have some overlap. The instruction: "Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading" but not about repeating content. It's okay. But we might want to avoid thin sections: Skills section with three items is okay. Check if any Benefits: none. Pay: we decided not to include. Schedule: none. Thus final HTML fragment. Let's craft the About the role paragraph: combine sentences. "MLK HS is seeking a Title I Paraprofessional. The ideal candidate should be knowledgeable and have a strong desire to help students learn. The primary responsibility is to implement, deliver and promote high academic expectations to all students. The ideal candidate must work collaboratively with team members and must possess excellent written and verbal communication skills. This is a one‑year position funded through Title I funds, with an end date on or before June 30, 2027. Continued employment beyond this period requires the applicant to apply for an available position and be recommended for a new role within the DeKalb County School District for the 2026‑2027 school year." Make sure to preserve all details: Title I Paraprofessional, one (1) year position, funded through Title I funds, end on or before June 30, 2027, applicant must apply for an available position and be recommended for a new position to continue employment for 2026-2027 school year.

We need to keep them as
  • . Now Requirements: Education And/Or Experience options: - High school diploma or GED and pass the GACE Paraprofessional Assessment, required. - OR - An associate degree or higher from a Georgia Professional Standards Commission-approved accredited college or university is required. - OR - Minimum of sixty (60) semester hours or ninety (90) quarter hours of college courses completed with a GPA (Grade Point Average) of 2.0 or higher from a Georgia Professional Standards Commission-approved accredited college or university. We could present as
    • ...
    . The "OR -" can be part of each item or we can just list options. Now Qualifications: "A valid Professional Standards Commission-approved paraprofessional certificate is required." Now Skills: "excellent written and verbal communication skills", "work collaboratively with team members", "knowledgeable and have a strong desire to help students learn". Could phrase as items. Now ensure we don't include any boilerplate like "The material contained herein is subject to change." That's boilerplate; remove. Also remove "All open positions offered by the DeKalb County School District are subject to specific job requirements." That's generic; remove. Also remove "The DeKalb County School District is an equal opportunity employer, and all hiring decisions are subject to federal, state, and local employment laws and regulations." Remove. Also remove "Title: Paraprofessional Supports teachers in meeting the educational, behavioral, and social emotional needs of students in the classroom and community." Might be considered part of About the role; but we already have description. Could keep as a sentence in About the role but it's somewhat redundant. However we must preserve ALL substantive information; this sentence is substantive: it describes the role. So we should incorporate it. We can incorporate into About the role paragraph. Let's rewrite About the role to include that sentence. "MLK HS is seeking a Title I Paraprofessional. The ideal candidate should be knowledgeable and have a strong desire to help students learn. The primary responsibility is to implement, deliver and promote high academic expectations to all students.
