for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate, navigation, EEO, etc. Must preserve all substantive info.
Let's parse the posting.
Key info:
- Title: SPECIAL EDUCATION TEACHER MA/MS – SCHOOL AGE PROGRAM Full-Time, Salary $52,000 - $85,000/year
- Shifts Available Monday – Friday, 8 am – 3 pm (32.5 hours per week)
- About Brightway Living & Learning: description.

Experience working with developmentally disabled individuals is preferred. Interest in working with developmentally disabled individuals is required.

- Then encouragement to apply etc (application instructions) - we must remove application instructions.
- EEO boilerplate - remove.
We need sections: About the role (maybe "About the role" corresponds to description of Brightway? Actually "About the role" could be the description of the role (The Role). But we also have "About Brightway Living & Learning". The instruction says use headings e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we need to map content accordingly.
We have:
- Pay: Salary $52,000 - $85,000/year (given). Also maybe mention Full-Time.
- Schedule: Shifts Available Monday – Friday, 8 am – 3 pm (32.5 hours per week).
- About the role: Could be the description of the role (The Role) plus maybe about Brightway? But "About the role" likely refers to description of the role. We'll put that.
- Responsibilities: What You'll Do (list of duties).
- Requirements: What You Must Be Able To Do? Actually requirements could be education/certification etc. But we have "What You Bring To Brightway Living & Learning" (education, certification, experience, interest, communication skills). That's qualifications/requirements. Also "What You Must Be Able To Do" is physical requirements; could be under Requirements or maybe a separate section like "Physical Requirements" but not in list. We could incorporate into Requirements.
- Qualifications: maybe same as Requirements? But we need to avoid duplication. Could treat "What You Bring" as Qualifications, and "What You Must Be Able To Do" as Requirements (physical). However the instruction says use headings e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we need to decide which content goes where.
We have:
- About the role: description of role and organization.
- Responsibilities: duties.
- Requirements: maybe education/certification, experience, interest, communication skills (what you bring). Or physical ability.
- Qualifications: maybe similar to Requirements; but we can combine? However we need to avoid empty sections. We could put education/certification under Qualifications, and experience/interest/skills under Skills? Or we could put "Skills" for interpersonal, oral, written communication skills, etc. And "Qualifications" for master's degree and NYS Teaching Certification.
Let's map:
- About the role: description of Brightway and the role (The Role paragraph).
- Responsibilities: What You'll Do (list).
- Qualifications: Must possess a master’s degree and NYS Teaching Certification in Special Education.
- Requirements: Experience working with developmentally disabled individuals is preferred. Interest in working with developmentally disabled individuals is required. (maybe also physical ability? but we could put physical under Requirements as well.)
- Skills: Must possess good interpersonal, oral and written communication skills. Also maybe the traits: Empathic, compassionate, patient, Positive, energetic, enthusiastic, good communicator and team player, Passionate about making a difference. Those could be Skills or personal attributes.
- Benefits: Here’s How We Support You list.
- Pay: Salary $52,000 - $85,000/year.
- Schedule: Shifts Available Monday – Friday, 8 am – 3 pm (32.5 hours per week).
We must not include sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". We have real content.
We need to output only HTML fragment, no /. Use
for each section heading. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail.
Let's extract exact text.
About Brightway Living & Learning: "Brightway Living & Learning is a premier non-profit provider of human services on Long Island, including educational, residential, day habilitation, and vocational programs. Building on a 65-year legacy as the Developmental Disabilities Institute (DDI), Brightway supports over 1,600 children and adults with autism and other developmental disabilities through a full continuum of care.

Discover more about our mission and our "All Ways Forward" approach at brightwayny.org."
The Role: "Special Education Teachers in the School Age Program are creative, energetic, career-oriented therapists who are motivated to educate individuals with developmental disabilities in an ungraded self-contained classroom. Special Education Teachers are offered on-going trainings and support provided by board certified behavior analysts and other qualified professionals to enhance and maximize career growth. Our school programs operate on a 12-month calendar. This is a great opportunity to get valuable experience and knowledge working in a classroom and community setting following the principles of applied behavior analysis."
We could combine About the role heading with both paragraphs? Probably yes.
Responsibilities: The list of duties under "What You'll Do". Let's capture each sentence as a bullet.
- The Teacher sets up the classroom, structures the schedule, and follows procedures in setting up program books and data collection systems for the purpose of implementing the IEPs of the students in the class.
- The Teacher develops and uses appropriate or recommended behavior management systems, behavior support plans, reinforcement schedules, positive teaching techniques, etc. in accordance with Brightway Living & Learning policy.

That's 8 bullets.
Requirements: Education/certification? Actually we said Qualifications for that. Let's decide:
Qualifications: Must possess a master’s degree and NYS Teaching Certification in Special Education.
Requirements: Experience working with developmentally disabled individuals is preferred. Interest in working with developmentally disabled individuals is required. Must possess good interpersonal, oral and written communication skills. (But communication skills could be Skills.)
Physical requirements: What You Must Be Able To Do: modify area to secure safety, lift/move 20 lbs, run after students up to 500 feet, run to a classroom in need up to 500 feet, kneel, twist, bend, respond to fire alarms.
We could put physical requirements under Requirements as well, but maybe better to put under Requirements (since they are requirements). However the instruction list includes Requirements and Qualifications separate; we can put education/certification under Qualifications, and experience/interest/physical under Requirements. Skills: communication skills and personal traits.
Let's extract personal traits: "If You Are Empathic, compassionate, and patient Positive, energetic, and enthusiastic A good communicator and team player Passionate about making a difference Then, we encourage you to apply..." This is a list of desired attributes. Could be under Skills.
Thus Skills: Empathic, compassionate, patient, Positive, energetic, enthusiastic, Good communicator and team player, Passionate about making a difference. Also maybe "good interpersonal, oral and written communication skills" (already covered). We'll combine.
Benefits: Here’s How We Support You list:
- Comprehensive Paid Training: Get the skills you need to succeed.
- Exceptional Benefits: Including medical, dental, vision, life insurance, FSA, and EAP.
- Retirement Security: 403(b) retirement plan.
- Invest in Your Future: Tuition reimbursement opportunities.
- Career Growth: Opportunities for advancement within Brightway Living & Learning.
- And More: Paid time off for school breaks!
We need to preserve all substantive information. So each bullet should contain the full sentence.
Pay: Salary $52,000 - $85,000/year. Also Full-Time? The posting says Full-Time, Salary $52,000 - $85,000/year. We'll include that.
Schedule: Shifts Available Monday – Friday, 8 am – 3 pm (32.5 hours per week).
