Secondary Paraeducator - Resource Support Program

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings

for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must only include sections when posting has real specific content. We need to parse the posting. We have POSITION SUMMARY: description. Then ESSENTIAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES list. Then Required Qualifications (education/experience). Additional Requirements. Preferred Qualifications. Condition Of Employment. Knowledge Of. Ability To. REQUIRED KNOWLEDGE, SKILLS AND ABILITIES RELATED TO CULTURAL COMPETENCE AND EQUITY. PHYSICAL DEMANDS. WORK CONDITIONS. WORK SCHEDULE. REPORTING RELATIONSHIPS. REPRESENTATION. Level Of Compensation (benefits). CLASSIFICATION HISTORY etc. We need to remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. Also remove disclaimer etc. Keep substantive info. We need to decide sections: About the role (position summary). Responsibilities (essential duties). Requirements (maybe qualifications). Qualifications (maybe required qualifications). Skills (maybe knowledge/skills/abilities). Benefits (Level Of Compensation includes benefits). Pay (maybe not explicit salary; only says Paraeducator position on the PSE Salary Schedule, no specific pay; we should not create Pay section unless posting actually states them. It does not give a number, so we should not include Pay. Schedule: WORK SCHEDULE section present: "This is a school year assignment. Hours and days will vary slightly from school to school." That's specific enough, so include Schedule. We also have WORK CONDITIONS, PHYSICAL DEMANDS maybe could be under Requirements or Skills? But we have headings limited to given list; we could include them under Requirements or Skills? The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It says e.g., meaning those are examples; we could also use other headings? It says use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Likely they expect only those headings. So we must map content to those headings. We cannot add other headings like Physical Demands. We could incorporate that info under Requirements or Skills. But we need to preserve ALL substantive information; we cannot drop it. So we need to include that info somewhere within allowed sections. We could put physical demands under Requirements or Skills. Similarly work conditions maybe under Requirements or Skills. But we need to avoid creating sections not in list. So we will use the allowed headings and put relevant info under them. We need to decide mapping: - About the role: POSITION SUMMARY. - Responsibilities: ESSENTIAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES list (including other responsibilities). We'll combine. - Requirements: Could include Required Qualifications (education/experience), Additional Requirements, Condition Of Employment, maybe also Knowledge Of, Ability To, Cultural Competence, Physical Demands, Work Conditions? But Requirements might be too broad. However we also have Qualifications heading separate. The list includes both Requirements and Qualifications as possible headings. We need to decide distinction: Usually Requirements = mandatory qualifications; Qualifications = preferred or additional? But we have both Required Qualifications and Preferred Qualifications in posting. So we could map Required Qualifications to Requirements section, and Preferred Qualifications to Qualifications section. Then Skills could include Knowledge Of, Ability To, Cultural Competence, Physical Demands, Work Conditions? Or maybe Skills includes knowledge/skills/abilities. We'll put Knowledge Of, Ability To, Cultural Competence under Skills. Benefits: Level Of Compensation includes benefits. Schedule: WORK SCHEDULE. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc. We must output only HTML fragment. We need to use

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

  for prose. Thus for each section we need to decide if content is list or prose. Let's extract content. POSITION SUMMARY: "Resource Support Programs (RSP) are provided to students with identified disabilities who demonstrate an increased need in one or more academic domains. The Paraeducator's duties will include assisting with special education students ranging in one-on-one to small group instructional activities, under the supervision of the certificated teacher/specialist. Other duties will include assisting with a variety of clerical tasks and the supervision of students assigned." That's prose; we can put in

  . ESSENTIAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES: list items separated by periods. We need to make a list. Let's extract each duty: - Tutor individuals and/or groups in specific skills as directed by the teacher. - When trained, will assist the teacher in administering special instructional and or behavioral programs. - Communicate and work with related resource personnel. - Supervise students in accordance with the school and district policies. - Plan daily/weekly with the teachers and other staff members servicing the same students. - Assist students and teacher with record keeping. - Assist the teacher in the communicating with other building/district staff members. - Assist the teacher in communicating with parents. - Discuss information pertaining to students with teacher or other appropriate staff within your building. - Inform the advising teacher to any observed problems or information regarding an individual student. - Give positive reinforcement to students during the school day. - Assist with the room maintenance and control of books and equipment. - Assist substitute teacher with helpful information pertinent to the classroom. - Practice effective safety and security within individual work routines. - Other Responsibilities Perform instructional clerical tasks. - Work collaboratively with District staff and promote teamwork with co-workers. - Assist substitute teacher with helpful information pertinent to the classroom. (duplicate? appears twice; we should deduplicate.) We need to preserve all substantive info but remove duplicated lines. So we should keep each unique duty. The duplicate "Assist substitute teacher with helpful information pertinent to the classroom." appears twice; we keep once. Also "Other Responsibilities Perform instructional clerical tasks." maybe separate bullet. We'll create a list.
