Schedule

Full-time

We also need to include the TRS retiree info and surcharge details. That is substantive; where to place? Could be under About the role or a separate section like Additional Information. But we only have allowed headings list; we could put under About the role or maybe under Requirements? The retiree info is about eligibility and reimbursement. Could be placed under About the role as additional detail. Let's incorporate into About the role paragraph. Add: "Retirees of the Texas Teachers Retirement System (TRS) may apply. Consistent with district policy SD-7.17 “Employment of Retirees,” selected applicants are responsible for reimbursing the district, through payroll deduction, for the current rate of all TRS pension or TRS Care surcharges. As of September 1, 2025, the TRS pension surcharge rate is 16.5% and the TRS Care surcharge is $535/month." Thus About the role paragraph becomes longer. Also note: "Wage/Hour Status: Exempt Pay Group: A45 Salary Plan" we already have in Pay. Now ensure we didn't miss any details: The posting also had "Special Knowledge/Skills" we covered as Skills. "Major Responsibilities And Duties" covered. "Policy, Reports, And Law" we put under Requirements (makes sense). "Working Conditions" includes Mental Demands, Physical Demands, Environmental Demands. We haven't included those. They are substantive. Should we include them? Possibly under a section like Working Conditions, but not in allowed headings. Could we incorporate into Requirements or Skills? They are about abilities and conditions. Could be part of Requirements (additional requirements). The heading "Requirements" could encompass those. We already have some requirements (confidentiality, etc). We can add a sublist for Working Conditions. Better to add a
