SPED Teacher (Mathematics)
for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections when there is real specific content.
We have content: description of role (Under the direction of the Principal...). That's responsibilities. Also "How You'll Be Making A Difference" is more responsibilities. So we can have a Responsibilities section.
Qualifications: Bachelors degree and knowledge in Mathematics required, Master's Degree in Education or a related field preferred, Massachusetts Educator Licensure required, Special Education license desired, Previous experience working in education and/or with program specific population highly desirable, Computer literate including Microsoft Office and Internet Explorer with the ability to learn new software applications.
Skills: maybe computer literate etc. Could be part of qualifications. But we can separate Skills if we want. However we should not create thin sections. Could combine Qualifications and Skills? But we need to follow instruction: use headings for those categories if content exists. We have qualifications content. Skills maybe not separate; we could put computer literate under Skills. But we can also include under Qualifications. Safer: have Qualifications section with bullet list; Skills maybe not needed.
Benefits: The posting lists benefits: generous time off, health/dental/vision, extensive training, tuition reimbursement, 403(b) with match, employer paid LTD/STD, basic life and AD&D, and more. So we have Benefits.
Pay: The posting includes "Pay Range Positioning Summary" but not actual numbers. It says pay range listed represents company's good faith estimate... but no actual numbers given. The instruction: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. It does mention pay range but does not give numbers. It says "The pay range listed represents the company’s good faith estimate..." but no actual range provided. Since no specific numbers, we should not create Pay section because it's not stating actual pay. The instruction: "never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD")". The pay range summary is filler. So we should omit Pay section.
Schedule: Not mentioned. Omit.
About the role: Could have a brief intro about the program. The first paragraph: "The Home for Little Wanderers' Walpole program seeks a Licensed SPED Teacher (Mathematics) for their Massachusetts Chapter 766 Special Education School, Clifford Academy. Clifford Academy provides a year-round engaging and comprehensive program focused on education, career development, recreation/fitness, and an individualized therapeutic approach." That's about the role/organization. Could be About the role section.
Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Benefits.
We need to use for each heading. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We must preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all details from the posting.

Now format.

We should not include Pay or Schedule sections.
Check that we didn't miss any substantive info: The posting also had "Valuing Diversity" section about diversity, equity, inclusion. That's substantive. Should we include? It's not under the prescribed headings but we could include as a separate section maybe "Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion". However instruction: Use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It says use those headings for those categories, but does not forbid other headings? It says "use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." It implies those are the allowed headings; we should not create other headings. The diversity statement is substantive; we could fold it into About the role or Responsibilities? Probably About the role could include that. But we must preserve all substantive information. We could add a paragraph under About the role about diversity. However the instruction says "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we could add a paragraph under About the role that includes the diversity statement. Let's do that.
Add after the existing About the role paragraph: "We are committed to excellence in diversity, equity, and inclusion, while simultaneously creating a culture that supports those values. We believe the differences we bring enhance our ability to provide exceptional service and care to diverse children, families, and communities. Moreover, diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging align with our values and our mission to help vulnerable children and their families build permanent, positive change."
That's from the posting.
Now About the role section will have two paragraphs.
Check for any other substantive info: The posting also had "What The Home Can Offer You" which we captured as Benefits. Also "Pay Range Positioning Summary" we omitted as per rule. Also there is a line "The Home for Little Wanderers' Walpole program seeks a Licensed SPED Teacher (Mathematics) for their Massachusetts Chapter 766 Special Education School, Clifford Academy." Already included.
Also there is "Under the direction of the Principal, participate
