Special Education Paraprofessional for Centennial Arts Academy for 2026-2027 School Year

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. The posting includes: Position Description (summary), Essential Job Functions (list), Additional Duties, Knowledge, Skills And Abilities, Physical and Mental Demands, Work Hazards, Qualifications Profile, Equipment Use, Travel Requirements, etc. We need to map content to sections. The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can choose which headings to use based on content. We should not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate (non-discrimination statement, etc). Also remove duplicated lines. We need to preserve all substantive information. We need to decide sections: - About the role: could include summary/purpose: "Under the general supervision of the Principal... Position Purpose ...". So we can put that in About the role. - Responsibilities: Essential Job Functions list, Additional Duties. - Requirements: maybe FLSA status, work calendar, etc? But those are metadata; we could put them in a short

maybe not as a heading. The instruction: do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

or drop it. So we can include work location, FLSA status, reports to, work calendar, salary schedule, revised date maybe as a short paragraph under About the role or separate? Probably better to include them in a short

after the summary. - Qualifications: Qualifications Profile. - Skills: Knowledge, Skills And Abilities. - Benefits, Pay, Schedule: only include if posting actually states them. The posting includes: SALARY SCHEDULE: APPROVED (Board): PAY GRADE: REVISED: April 2020. No actual pay amount or schedule. It says "SALARY SCHEDULE: APPROVED (Board): PAY GRADE:" but no specifics. That's placeholder; we should not create Pay/Benefits/Schedule sections unless posting actually states them. Since no specific pay, benefits, schedule details, we should omit those sections. Thus we will have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Skills. We might also include a short paragraph for metadata like work location, reports to, etc. Could be part of About the role. We need to use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So Essential Job Functions list should be
  • . Additional Duties also list. Knowledge, Skills And Abilities is a list; we can put under Skills section as
    • . Qualifications Profile is prose; we can put as

      . Now we need to preserve all substantive information. Let's extract. From posting: - WORK LOCATION: School Based - FLSA STATUS: Non-Exempt - REPORTS TO: Principal - WORK CALENDAR: 190 Days - SALARY SCHEDULE: APPROVED (Board): PAY GRADE: REVISED: April 2020 But we said we will not create Pay/Benefits/Schedule sections; we can include this metadata in a short

      maybe under About the role. - SUMMARY: Under the general supervision of the Principal.

We'll include Qualifications section with the bullet points (maybe as

      • ). But the instruction says use
        • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Qualifications is a list of requirements; we can use list. But we also have a separate Skills section for Knowledge, Skills And Abilities. Thus:

          About the role

          ... summary plus metadata ...

          Responsibilities

          • ... essential functions ...
          ... plus additional duties maybe also in same list? Could separate but we can combine. Better to separate Essential Job Functions and Additional Duties as separate
          under Responsibilities. But we need to preserve all info. We'll do:

          Responsibilities

          Essential Job Functions

          but we cannot use h4; only h3 allowed for section headings. We could just have one list with all responsibilities including additional duties. That's okay. We'll include note about illustrative. Now Qualifications:

          Qualifications

          • Any combination of education and experience providing the required skill and knowledge for successful performance would be qualifying.
          • Typical qualifications would be equivalent to: High School diploma or equivalent AND GACE Paraprofessional Assessment OR 60 or more satisfactory college credit hours
          • Prior experience working with special needs children desirable.
          Skills

• Ability to carry out instructions furnished in written or oral form.
... etc. We also might include Equipment Use and Travel Requirements as part of Responsibilities or maybe a separate section like "Working Conditions". But we only have allowed headings list; we could put them under Responsibilities as additional bullet points. But the instruction: Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It says e.g., not limited to those? It says use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we should stick to those headings; we can't add others like Equipment Use. So we need to fold that info into existing sections. Thus we can put Equipment Use and Travel Requirements under Responsibilities as bullet points. Physical and Mental Demands maybe also under Responsibilities or maybe under Qualifications? Could be under Responsibilities as working conditions. We'll include them as bullet points under Responsibilities. Now About the role: include summary/purpose plus metadata (work location, reports to, work calendar, FLSA status, salary schedule revised). We'll keep it as a short paragraph. We must not include boilerplate non-discrimination statement. Now produce HTML fragment. Let's craft. About the role paragraph: "Under the general supervision of the Principal, the SPED Paraprofessional works under the direct supervision of a certified staff member to assist certified professional staff with students in the classroom to meet instructional goals and objectives, and to free certified professional employees from non‑professional duties such as proctoring study halls so they can contribute to other aspects of the educational program (e.g., curriculum development). The position is school‑based, reports to the Principal, follows a 190‑day work calendar, and is classified as non‑exempt. The salary schedule was approved by the Board and revised in April 2020." That preserves all. Now Responsibilities list: combine essential functions, additional duties, equipment use, travel requirements, physical demands. We'll list each as

. Let's enumerate: - Assists and guides students to reinforce reading, language arts, mathematics, computer instruction, and other skills. - Works with students individually and in small groups to reinforce basic learning and implement assigned programs. - Assists professional staff in the administration and correction of classroom exercises, tests and assessments. - Assists in classroom preparations and strategies for reinforcing instructional materials and skills according to individual student needs. - Assists with record-keeping procedures to document student learning and performance. - Assists with classroom behavioral management to minimize disruptions, ensure a safe and orderly classroom, and ensure students are on task. - Assists students in non-instructional areas, such as supervising the student lunch programs, bus duty, playground duty, corridor, study hall, and other related non-instructional areas. - Accompanies students on field trips for the purpose of assisting with supervision. - Constructs, copies, distributes and uses educational materials as needed. - Assists teacher with parent contact as requested to foster effective and participatory parent involvement in student education. - Assists students with special needs in all aspects of classroom instruction to maximize inclusion, learning, achievement of IEP objectives. - Participates in the IEP process and serves as a resource for the student personnel evaluation team as needed. - Assists students with physical or mental disabilities with activities of daily living to maximize their ability to participate in
