We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Not present. The posting includes Position Purpose, Minimum Qualifications (KSAs), Education..., Certification..., Preferred Qualifications, Essential Duties..., Working Conditions (Physical Environment, Work Environment), Effective Date, Disclaimer. We need to map to headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We should include only sections with real content. We have Position Purpose -> could be About the role. Essential Duties And Responsibilities -> Responsibilities. Minimum Qualifications (KSAs) + Education + Certification -> Requirements/Qualifications/Skills. We need to decide mapping. We have Knowledge, Skills, Abilities (KSAs) -> Skills. Education, Training, And Experience -> Qualifications. Certification And License Requirements -> Qualifications maybe. Preferred Qualifications -> maybe Skills or Qualifications. We need to avoid filler. No Pay, Schedule, Benefits unless present. Not present. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID. We must remove boilerplate: Effective Date, Disclaimer maybe considered boilerplate? It's not navigation/legal/EEO but it's a disclaimer; maybe we should drop it as it's not substantive? The instruction: Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. Disclaimer might be considered legal boilerplate; better to drop. Effective date maybe also not needed. We'll drop those. Thus sections: About the role (Position Purpose). Responsibilities (Essential Duties And Responsibilities). Skills (KSAs). Qualifications (Education, Training, And Experience; Certification And License Requirements; Preferred Qualifications). Could combine. We need to use

for each section heading. Use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use

    for prose. We need to preserve all substantive information; not invent or summarize away detail. We'll need to convert lists into

    • . The KSAs are a list separated by semicolons. We'll break each item into
    • . Similarly duties are sentences separated by periods; we can make list items. Education etc are prose; we can keep as

      . Let's extract content. Position Purpose: "Coordinates and provides direct instructional programs relating to special education students and their Individual Education Programs (IEPs). Monitors and evaluates programs with students with disabilities, maintains confidentiality, and complies with all federal, state, and local laws, regulations, guidelines, and procedures as they relate to the special education program throughout the district.

Preferred Qualifications: "First Aid and CPR certifications; Crisis Prevention and Intervention (CPI) certification" We can combine Education, Certification, Preferred into Qualifications section maybe as list. But we need to avoid thin sections; maybe combine all qualification-related into one Qualifications section with sublists? However instruction: Use
      • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we can have a Qualifications section with
        • items for each qualification. Thus Qualifications section will contain list items: Bachelor’s degree..., Hold or be eligible..., Must hold and maintain..., First Aid and CPR certifications..., Crisis Prevention and Intervention (CPI) certification. We'll keep as list. Now we need to output HTML fragment only, no /, no markdown fences. Thus:

          We omitted Working Conditions (Physical Environment, Work Environment) because not requested headings; but we could include as a section if we think it's substantive. The allowed headings list includes Benefits, Pay, Schedule, etc. Not Working Conditions. So we should not create a section for Working Conditions because not in allowed headings. The instruction: Use

          for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It says e.g., implying those are examples but we should stick to those? It says "use

          for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." Likely we should only use those headings. So we should not add a Working Conditions section. We'll drop that info? But we must preserve ALL substantive information; dropping Working Conditions would lose info. However we could incorporate Working Conditions into another section like Responsibilities or Qualifications? Not appropriate. But maybe we can include it under Responsibilities? Not really. The instruction says "include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text". It doesn't forbid adding other headings beyond the examples, but the examples are given. It says "use

          for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." That suggests those are the allowed headings. So we should not create other headings. Then we need to fit Working Conditions somewhere else, maybe as part of Responsibilities? Could be considered part of the role. But it's about physical environment; maybe we can add a paragraph under About the role? Might be okay. We could add a

          after About the role that includes Working Conditions. But that would mix purpose with conditions. Might be okay. Alternatively we could create a "Requirements" section and put Working Conditions there? Not ideal. Given the instruction to preserve ALL substantive information, we need to include Working Conditions info. Since we cannot create a new heading, we must embed it within an existing section. Perhaps we can add a

          under About the role that includes both purpose and working conditions. Or we could add a

          under Responsibilities. I
