Special Education Teacher

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings using

for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. Must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate, EEO, etc. Must preserve all substantive info. We need to parse the posting. Key sections: - About the role? The description includes mission statements, but we can treat as "About the role" maybe. The posting includes: "At Rocketship Public Schools, we believe..." and description of role. Could be "About the role" or "Overview". Use heading "About the role". Provide paragraph(s) summarizing mission and role description. - Responsibilities: The essential functions list includes Instruction & Inclusion, Case Management & Compliance, Behavior & Family Partnership, Rocketship Professional Culture. Those are responsibilities. So we can make a

• list of responsibilities. Could group them. - Requirements: Required Qualifications: B.A./B.S., valid license etc. Also maybe "Must maintain active credential". So we can list as
  . - Preferred Qualifications: At least 2 years experience, ABA background, knowledge of special ed law. Could be under "Preferred Qualifications" maybe as "Requirements" or separate "Preferred Qualifications". The instruction says use headings like Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can decide to use "Qualifications" for required, and maybe "Preferred Qualifications" as a subsection? But only allowed headings list includes Qualifications (maybe cover both). Could also use "Skills" for ABA etc. But better to follow: Use "Qualifications" for required, and maybe "Preferred Qualifications" as a subheading? Not allowed. Could incorporate preferred into "Qualifications" with note? But we must not invent headings not in list. The allowed headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we can use "Qualifications" for required qualifications, and maybe "Skills" for preferred qualifications/skills like ABA, experience, etc. Or we could put experience under Requirements? Actually "Requirements" could be for required qualifications; "Qualifications" could be for preferred? But ambiguous. Let's map: - Requirements: maybe mandatory items (B.A./B.S., license). - Qualifications: maybe preferred qualifications (experience, ABA, knowledge). - Skills: maybe specific skills like behavior support, ABA, IEP writing, collaboration. But we need to avoid filler. Let's decide: Section "About the role": paragraph describing mission and role. Section "Responsibilities": bullet list of essential functions (Instruction & Inclusion, Case Management & Compliance, Behavior & Family Partnership, Rocketship Professional Culture). Could break each into sub-bullets? We'll keep as bullet points summarizing each. Section "Requirements": bullet list of required qualifications: B.A./B.S. degree from accredited institution; valid Lifetime License or Provisional License in appropriate Cross-Categorical Endorsement OR eligible to obtain 1 Year License with Stipulations and enroll in accredited credentialing program during first year; must maintain active and in-good-standing credential status. Section "Qualifications": bullet list of preferred qualifications: At least 2 years experience working with children in special education, behavioral support, or related settings; background or understanding of ABA principles; knowledge of special education law, IDEA compliance, effective inclusion practices. Section "Skills": maybe list skills like: IEP development and compliance, behavior support planning (BSP/BIP), ABA strategies, collaboration with general educators, paraprofessionals, families, coaching engagement, communication, record-keeping. But we must not invent details not in posting. The posting mentions: "write professional, compliant IEPs; facilitate IEP meetings; maintain accurate records; collaborate with psychologists and related service providers; apply strategies including ABA; partner with families; engage in weekly coaching; act with urgency; self-reflection; collaborate effectively; uphold compliance; contribute to team culture." Those are responsibilities/skills. Could put under Skills. But we must not create sections with filler. If we put Skills, we need real content. We have those. Benefits: The posting mentions: "Commensurate with qualifications and experience, plus excellent health and wellness benefits, 403b retirement plan, flexible spending account (FSA), and generous paid time off." That's benefits and compensation. Pay: they gave a salary range: $54,827 - $71,354 a year. So we have Pay and Benefits sections. Schedule: Not mentioned. So we omit Schedule. Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay. Check if any content duplicated: We must not repeat job title as heading. Good. We must not include boilerplate like EEO etc. Remove. Now produce HTML fragment: use

  for each heading, then

  for prose,

  • for lists. We need to preserve all substantive information. Let's extract details precisely. About the role: Could combine mission statements and role description. From posting: "At Rocketship Public Schools, we believe in the infinite possibility of human potential. We believe that every student deserves the right to dream, to discover, and to develop their unique potential and it is our responsibility and our privilege to unleash the potential inside every Rocketeer we serve. Our non-profit network of public elementary charter schools propels student achievement, develops exceptional educators, and partners with parents who enable high-quality public schools to thrive in their community. We are a collective of parents, teachers, leaders, and students working together to transform the future for underserved communities across our country. At Rocketship Public Schools, we are unleashing potential." Then role description: "Position Description Rocketship Special Education Teachers, known as Education Specialists (Mild/Moderate Support Needs), play a critical role in ensuring every student has access to an excellent, inclusive education. Specialists work closely with students, families, general education teachers, and paraprofessionals to provide academic, behavioral, and social-emotional support aligned to Individualized Education Programs (IEPs). At Rocketship, we believe in the power of inclusive education. Our model ensures that students with disabilities learn alongside their peers in the general education setting whenever possible. Education Specialists co-teach, collaborate with general educators, and partner with paraprofessionals to uphold accommodations and modifications, creating classrooms where all students thrive together. Education Specialists manage a caseload at a single school, providing small-group, push-in, and pull-out instruction while ensuring compliance with IDEA and state law. They are supported through weekly coaching from school leaders and additional coaching from a Special Education Program Specialist, ensuring strong professional growth and alignment to best practices. Behavior support is also central to the role. Specialists partner with families and staff to implement Behavior Support Plans (BSPs) and Behavior Intervention Plans (BIPs), applying strategies such as Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) to create safe and supportive learning environments.

We could condense but must preserve all substantive info. Could list each bullet as separate
