Speech Language Pathologist - Upper Rio Grande Valley GP (26-27)
for section headings. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We must preserve all substantive info, not invent or summarize away detail. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. Also remove "Application Process" etc. Also remove "Please Note: This posting is for a general applicant pool..." etc. Also remove "Learn more about IDEA" etc. Also remove "IDEA may offer a relocation stipend..." maybe keep as part of benefits? It's a benefit. Keep.
We need to decide sections: About the role (mission, location, reporting). Responsibilities (essential duties). Requirements (maybe required experience, license, etc). Qualifications (maybe education, certification). Skills (competencies). Benefits (compensation & benefits). Pay (salary range). Schedule (maybe full-time on-site, travel). The posting mentions "full-time on-site position located in the Upper RGV. Preference will be given to candidates who live in the region, or who are willing to relocate." Also "This role involves some minor travel between assigned campuses." That's schedule info.
We must not create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience" etc. For Pay we have actual salary range: $70,500 to $82,100. That's specific, so include Pay section. Benefits: list medical, dental, vision, disability, life insurance, parenting benefits, flexible spending account options, generous vacation time, referral bonuses, professional development, 403(b) plan, relocation stipend. That's specific.
Schedule: full-time on-site, some minor travel between campuses. That's specific.
We need to avoid placeholder like "commensurate with experience" but we can include the salary range plus note that it's commensurate with experience? The instruction says: never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") . So we cannot include the phrase "commensurate with experience" as filler. But we can still include the salary range and maybe mention that it's based on experience? That might be considered filler? The phrase "commensurate with relevant experience and qualifications" is maybe considered filler? It's describing the range but still somewhat generic. Safer to just state the range without that phrase. However we must preserve all substantive information; removing that phrase might be considered losing detail? The phrase is not essential; the substantive info is the salary range. So we can drop the phrase.
Similarly for Benefits we have "Salaries for people entering this role typically fall between $70,500 and $82,100, commensurate with relevant experience and qualifications and in alignment with internal equity. This role is also eligible for performance pay based on organizational performance and goal attainment." That's performance pay info; we could include that under Pay or Benefits? It's compensation. We'll include performance pay as part of Pay section.
We must not duplicate lines.

About the role

Responsibilities
- ... each duty.
We need to list duties from "Essential Duties What You’ll Do – Accountabilities". Many bullet-like sentences. We'll convert each sentence to - . Must preserve all substantive info; we can break into separate items.
We need to be careful not to miss any.
Let's extract duties:
- Review IEPs and ensure 100% implementation of extensive knowledge and provide top quality speech therapy services.
- Create IEPs aligned to instruction with the collaboration of parents, general educators, special educators, and interventionists.
- Monitor students’ therapy and academic progress throughout the year in order to update goals and request additional testing when deemed necessary.
- Ensure 100% compliance with ARDs by reviewing Special Education Student Rosters for Annual ARDs and Re-Evaluations due dates on a weekly basis.
- Schedule Annual ARDs and Re-Evaluation ARDs prior to due date to ensure 100% compliance.
- Facilitate ARDs and prepare ARD documents in accordance with students’ progress, archive ARD documents, and submit signature pages within specified timely to Manager.
- For dual ARDs, schedule Annual ARDs and Re-Evaluation ARDs prior to due date with Diagnostician, Licensed Specialist School Psychology, and/or Occupational Therapist to ensure 100% compliance.
- For dual ARDs, participate in ARDs and update IEPs, Present Levels of Academic Achievement and Functional Performance, and schedule of service in accordance with students’ progress.
- Ensure 100% compliance by completing Speech and Language Initials and Re-Evaluations prior to due date as per Texas Education Agency (TEA) timeframe.
- Demonstrate extensive knowledge in the appropriate selection of assessment tools, conducting assessments, interpreting, and identifying students with communication disorders and determine eligibility for services according to IDEA Public Schools Policies and Procedures, TEA Guidelines, and Licensing Boards.
- For qualifying students, develop appropriate speech IEPs aligned to instruction and schedule of service in accordance to the students’ academic needs.
- Maintain Therapy Notes, Tracking Logs, ARD Logs, and Evaluation Logs on a daily basis and review with the Manager on a weekly basis.
- Submit Therapy Logs on a Quarterly Basis to their Manager.
- Maintain SHARS (Medicaid) records and submit SHARS billing on a monthly basis.
- Ensure and monitor students’ progress in order to complete progress reports on a quarterly basis.
- Participate in Annual Performance with their Manager and submit required documentation.
- Communicate a shared vision and shared responsibility to establish and promote efficient implementation of RTI at the school-level throughout the various TIERs.
- Support the RTI Team in providing recommendations for the implementation of speech interventions with high levels of fidelity.
- Conduct formal assessments, planning, and scheduling of ARDs alongside the Diagnostician, Licensed Specialist in School Psychology, and/or Occupational Therapist in order to report evaluation results within TEA timeframe to the ARD Committee.
That's a lot.
Now Requirements: maybe "Required Experience" includes Master's degree, Texas license, ASHA CCC, CFY Interns accepted. Also maybe "Physical Requirements" could be under Requirements or separate? Could be under Requirements as well. But we have a section for Requirements; we can include education, licensure, certification, physical requirements.
Qualifications: maybe "Knowledge And Skills" could be Skills. Actually "What You Bring – Competencies Knowledge And Skills" includes knowledge and skills. We'll put those under Skills.
Requirements: Master’s degree, Texas license, ASHA CCC, CFY Interns accepted. Also maybe "Physical Requirements" could be under Requirements as well.
But we also have "Physical Requirements" separate; we could include them under Requirements as a list.
We need to avoid duplication.
Let's decide:
- About the role: mission, location, reporting, travel.
- Responsibilities: list of duties.
- Requirements: education, licensure, certification, physical requirements.
- Skills: knowledge and skills competencies.
- Benefits: compensation & benefits list.
- Pay: salary range and performance pay.
- Schedule: full-time on-site, minor travel.
Check if any section would be empty or filler.
Now craft HTML.
We must not include any markdown fences.
Let's write.
Be careful to escape any HTML special characters? Not needed.
We'll output:
