Special Education Teacher Aide – Resource Classroom (26-27SY)
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we need to map content to those headings. We have mission statement (maybe not needed). Summary: "Assist the teacher..." That's like About the role? Could be "About the role". Essential Duties And Responsibilities -> Responsibilities. Qualifications -> Qualifications. Language Skills, Mathematical Skills, Reasoning Ability, Computer Skills -> Skills? Could combine into Skills section. Safety Duties And Responsibilities maybe part of Responsibilities? Could be separate but not in list; we could include under Responsibilities. Physical and Mental Demands maybe not a standard heading; could be omitted or put under Requirements? Not in list. Work Environment maybe omitted. Other Qualifications maybe part of Qualifications. Starting pay: $19.80/hr -> Pay section. Application Procedure etc should be removed (boilerplate). EEO etc removed.
We must not create sections with filler like "not specified". So only include sections where we have real content.
Thus sections:
- About the role (from Summary)
- Responsibilities (Essential Duties And Responsibilities + Safety Duties And Responsibilities maybe)
- Qualifications (Education And/or Experience, Language Skills, Mathematical Skills, Reasoning Ability, Computer Skills, Other Qualifications)
- Skills (maybe combine Language, Math, Reasoning, Computer into Skills)
But we already used Qualifications for education/experience etc. Could separate Skills as its own heading. The instruction list includes Skills as possible heading. So we can put skill-based items under Skills.
Qualifications heading for education/experience and other qualifications.
Pay heading for starting pay.
We should not include Benefits or Schedule unless present (none).
We must preserve all substantive information. So we need to include all duties, qualifications, skills, pay.
We need to format lists with - . For prose use
.
We need to avoid repeating job title.
Let's extract content.
Mission Statement: maybe not needed; it's boilerplate? It's mission statement of organization, could be considered About the role? But we already have Summary. Probably we can omit mission statement as it's not specific to job. The instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. Mission statement maybe not boilerplate but it's generic; but we could keep as part of About the role? However we have Summary already. Safer to omit mission statement.
