We need to output HTML fragment with headings

for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. Must not repeat job title. Must not include Job ID etc. Must preserve all substantive info, no summarizing away detail. Remove boilerplate like cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. The posting includes many details: essential functions, responsibilities, qualifications, etc. We need to parse. We need sections: About the role (maybe a brief description). Responsibilities (list of duties). Requirements (maybe qualifications). Qualifications (maybe certifications). Skills (maybe abilities). Benefits, Pay, Schedule only if present. The posting mentions "Length of assignment - 187 days" and "Click here to view Ysleta ISD's Compensation Plan" but no explicit pay or benefits. It mentions "Required Documents" etc. No explicit benefits, pay, schedule. So we should not include those sections unless there is real specific content. There's mention of "Length of assignment - 187 days" which could be schedule? It's about assignment length, not schedule. Could be considered schedule? But schedule usually refers to work hours, shift, etc. Not present. So we omit Pay, Schedule, Benefits. We need to include sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. Possibly also "Other Responsibilities" but we can fold into Responsibilities. We must not invent or summarize away detail. Must preserve all substantive info. So we need to list each duty as
  • . Must not lose any detail. Let's extract duties from "Essential Functions" and other paragraphs. Essential Functions bullet list (though not formatted as bullet but sentences). We'll convert each sentence to
  • . List: - Help supervise students throughout the school day, inside and outside the classroom to include lunchroom, bus, and playground duty. - Assist teacher with instructional material preparation, behavioral interventions, and physical needs of student(s). - Participate in staff development training, and implement learned strategies into the curriculum. - Work with individual students, small groups, and whole class as assigned by teacher. - Assist students with severe development and communication delays, lack of social interaction and behavioral concerns to implement modifications and master individual instructional goals. - Reinforce skills and units of instruction that have been taught by the teacher. - Adhere to the guidelines established in the student's Individualized Education Plan (IEP) under the supervision of the assigned teacher to include documentation of services provided. - Help manage the behavior of assigned student(s) to include intervening in crisis situations and restraining disruptive and dangerous students as needed. - Assist with testing measurement instruments and technology integration into the curriculum. - Incorporate social and emotional learning, behavioral strategies, and social skills development on a daily basis. - Assist teacher with filing, copying, inventory and maintenance of equipment, and maintain responsibility of billing for Student Health and Related Services (SHARS) as required. - Assist students and teacher in the use of augmentative communication and/or adaptive/assistive devices as appropriate. - Help meet the individual needs of student(s) including transferring to and from wheelchairs; lifting and positioning; interpreting instructions; and assisting with physical needs and personal care to include but not limited to feeding, bathroom needs, diaper changing, and personal hygiene. - Provide orientation and assistance to substitutes. - Meet with teachers, administrators, and SPED support staff to evaluate and assist with student progress. - Attendance at the work site is required to meet essential functions of the job. Then "Virtual And Online Duties (additional As Assigned)": - Assist in the creation and actively participate in a virtual classroom environment conducive to learning and appropriate for the physical, social, and emotional development of students. - Be available by phone, email, or video conferencing during regular school business hours to confer with district stakeholders as needed. "Other Responsibilities": - Participate in professional development activities as required by the district. - Follow established safety procedures to perform job duties; support district/department goals. - Maintain a professional code of ethics and perform other duties as assigned. Now Qualifications section: The posting includes "Qualifications" heading with details: - High school diploma/GED or higher; forty-eight (48) hours from an accredited college or university; have experience working with students and parents. - Must possess or be eligible to obtain a paraprofessional certificate issued by the State Board for Educator Certification (SBEC). - Acquire certification in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and Heimlich maneuver, and Non-Violent Crisis Intervention (NCI) within available district training calendar. - Must be familiar with/able to use Occupational Therapy/Physical Therapy (OT/PT) apparatus. - Must be able to communicate, listen, read, write, and comprehend the English language sufficiently to use it easily and readily in daily communication. Then "Mental Demands/Physical Demands/Environmental Factors": - Must be able to assist in the lifting/ carrying of students with disabilities in excess of 50 to 175 lbs. depending on age level, pushing/pulling wheelchair/walker, personal hygiene, etc. - Must possess ability, skill, patience and understanding to work with students who have disabilities. - Frequent bending, reaching, standing, kneeling, squatting. - Subject to the district's drug and alcohol screening policy and regulation. Then "Paraprofessional Level 205 Length of assignment - 187 days Click here to view Ysleta ISD's Compensation Plan Required Documents ..." This includes required documents: transcripts from an accredited college or university. We need to decide where to put these. Qualifications section could include education, certification, etc. Skills could include abilities like communication, lifting, etc. Requirements maybe include certifications? But we have both Qualifications and Requirements sections. The instruction: Use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we need to map content. About the role: a brief description of the job purpose. Could be first sentence: "Help meet physical and instructional needs of individual students with disabilities inside and outside classroom." That's the opening line. We'll put that as About the role. Responsibilities: all duties (essential functions, virtual duties, other responsibilities). We'll list as
    • . Requirements: maybe the mandatory items like high school diploma/GED, 48 college hours, experience working with students and parents, paraprofessional certificate eligibility, CPR/NCI certification, OT/PT apparatus familiarity, English language proficiency, physical demands (lifting, etc.), drug screening. Could be considered requirements. Qualifications: maybe the certifications and education? But there is overlap. To avoid duplication, we need to decide what goes where. The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all info, but we can categorize without losing detail. Overlap is okay as long as we don't omit. We could put some items in Requirements and some in Qualifications, but ensure all appear somewhere. Better: Use Requirements for mandatory prerequisites (education, experience, certifications). Use Qualifications for preferred or additional qualifications (like OT/PT apparatus familiarity, English language, physical ability). Use Skills for abilities like communication, patience, etc. But we need to ensure no info lost. Let's list all items: From Qualifications heading: - High school diploma/GED or higher; forty-eight (48) hours from an accredited college or university; have experience working with students and parents. - Must possess or be eligible to obtain a paraprofessional certificate issued by the State Board for Educator Certification (SBEC). - Acquire certification in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and Heimlich maneuver, and Non-Violent Crisis Intervention (NCI) within available district training calendar. - Must be familiar with/able to use Occupational Therapy/Physical Therapy (OT/PT) apparatus. - Must be able to communicate, listen, read, write, and comprehend the English language sufficiently to use it easily and readily in daily communication. From Mental Demands/Physical Demands/Environmental Factors: - Must be able to assist in the lifting/ carrying of students with disabilities in excess of 50 to 175 lbs. depending on age level, pushing/pulling wheelchair/walker, personal hygiene, etc. - Must possess ability, skill, patience and understanding to work with students who have disabilities. - Frequent bending, reaching, standing, kneeling, squatting. - Subject to the district's drug and alcohol screening policy and regulation. From Required Documents: - Transcripts from an accredited college or university. Also Paraprofessional Level 205 Length of assignment - 187 days (maybe schedule? but we said not schedule). Could be considered assignment length; maybe we could put under About the role? But it's specific info. Could be a separate section like "Assignment Details" but not allowed headings. We could incorporate into About the role as a sentence: "This is a Paraprofessional Level 205 position with a 187-day assignment." That preserves info. Now we need to avoid boilerplate like "Click here to view Ysleta ISD's Compensation Plan" (that's a link, but we can drop as it's not substantive? It's a reference to compensation plan but not actual pay. Since we don't have pay details, we can drop the link. Also "Required Documents" list includes transcripts; we keep that. Now we need to output HTML fragment only. Let's craft:
