for each heading. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose. Do NOT repeat job title as heading. Do NOT put Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. Preserve all substantive info.
We need to decide which sections to include based on content.
Content includes:
- Who we are? description of school (Ethical Culture Fieldston School). That's about the organization, could be "About the role"? Actually "About the role" is about the position, but we have description of school. Could be "About the school" but not in allowed headings list. Allowed headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We can only use those headings. So we need to map content to these headings.
We have "Position" description: The Upper School is seeking experienced classroom teachers available on an on-call basis to serve as substitute teachers for grades 9-12 with expertise in areas below. The ideal candidates will have strong classroom management skills, familiarity with hands-on teaching practices, relevant experience with upper school students, and the ability to teach multiple academic subjects. Subjects currently offered... Substitutes needed for half day, full day, extended subbing schedules throughout the school year. The rate for a substitute is $25.00 per hour, and the hours would be approximately 8 am-3:30 pm. Please note that this is an onsite role and not performed remotely. Ethical Culture Fieldston School retains its right to modify job duties in accordance with changing operational needs.
That's about the role: we can put under
About the role
a paragraph summarizing.
Responsibilities: list bullet points.
Requirements: list bullet points.
Qualifications: maybe combine with Requirements? The posting has "Position Requirements" which includes many bullet points. Could treat as Requirements or Qualifications. We need to decide: we have both Requirements and Qualifications headings allowed. We could put the bullet list under Requirements, and maybe Qualifications could be omitted if no distinct content. But we must only include sections when posting has real specific content. The posting has "Position Requirements" which is essentially qualifications. We could treat that as Requirements. Could also split: Requirements = Bachelor's Degree etc? Actually the list includes many items: Bachelor's Degree, passion for teaching, strong classroom management experience, familiarity with hands-on teaching practices, ability to teach multiple academic subjects, ability to collaborate, commitment to cultural competency, excellent communication skills, positive attitude, ability to listen, manage time, commitment to ongoing professional development, reliability, punctuality, ability to cultivate welcoming culture. That's qualifications. So we can put that under Requirements (or Qualifications). Since we have both headings, we could put some under Requirements (like Bachelor's Degree, passion, etc) and some under Qualifications (like commitment to cultural competency, etc). But better to avoid thin sections. Prefer few substantive sections. So we could combine all into Requirements and omit Qualifications. Or we could put Requirements for mandatory items (Bachelor's Degree, strong classroom management, etc) and Qualifications for preferred items (cultural competency, etc). But the posting doesn't differentiate. So better to have one section, maybe Requirements, and skip Qualifications.
Skills: maybe we could extract skills like classroom management, hands-on teaching, multiple subjects, collaboration, communication, time management, technology proficiency. But that overlaps with Requirements. Could put under Skills. But we need to avoid duplication. The instruction: "Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits". So we can have multiple lists. We could have Responsibilities list, Requirements list, Skills list, Benefits list, Pay, Schedule.
We have Pay: rate $25 per hour. Hours approx 8am-3:30pm. That's Pay and Schedule.
We have Benefits: not mentioned besides maybe none. No explicit benefits. So we should not create Benefits section unless posting actually states them. It does not mention benefits like health insurance, retirement, etc. So omit Benefits.
Schedule: we have hours approx 8am-3:30pm. Also mention half day, full day, extended subbing schedules throughout the school year. So we can include Schedule.
Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Skills (maybe), Pay, Schedule.
We need to ensure we don't create empty sections.
Let's extract substantive content.
About the role: combine description of position: The Upper School seeking experienced classroom teachers on-call as substitute teachers for grades 9-12, expertise in subjects listed, strong classroom management, familiarity with hands-on teaching, relevant experience with upper school students, ability to teach multiple academic subjects. Substitutes needed for half day, full day, extended subbing schedules throughout school year. Onsite role, not remote. Rate $25 per hour, hours approx 8am-3:30pm. Also note school retains right to modify duties.
But Pay and Schedule will be separate; we can still mention in About the role but avoid duplication? The instruction: preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep the info somewhere. If we put Pay and Schedule separate, we can still mention in About the role but maybe we should not duplicate. However duplication is allowed? It says remove duplicated lines. So we should avoid duplicating same info. So we should split: About the role includes description of role, subjects, on-call, onsite, etc. Pay and Schedule sections contain the pay rate and hours. The schedule also includes half/full/extended subbing schedules. So we can put schedule details there.
Thus About the role paragraph: The Upper School is seeking experienced classroom teachers available on an on-call basis to serve as substitute teachers for grades 9-12 with expertise in the subjects listed below. Ideal candidates will have strong classroom management skills, familiarity with hands-on teaching practices, relevant experience with upper school students, and the ability to teach multiple academic subjects. The school offers subjects including English, Ethics, History, Languages, Math, Learning Center, Library, Music, Physical Education, Science, Theater/Dance, Visual Arts. Substitutes are needed for half‑day, full‑day, and extended subbing schedules throughout the school year. This is an onsite position; remote work is not permitted. The school reserves the right to modify job duties as operational needs change.
Responsibilities: list bullet points from responsibilities section. Need to deduplicate duplicated line: "Teaching classes based on a specific lesson plan in an engaging manner;" appears twice. We'll keep one.
List:
- Teaching classes based on a specific lesson plan in an engaging manner
- Leaving notes for the returning teacher based on the day's instruction
- Having a collaborative approach with other colleagues, including sharing resources and communicating about curriculum and students
- Appropriately addressing student behavioral issues and other challenges that may arise in the classroom to maintain a safe environment and a sense of calm
- Maintaining accurate student record keeping, including grades and attendance
- Providing encouragement to students to help support their social and emotional growth
- Ensuring confidentiality of student information as necessary
- Maintaining compliance with all school policies, state regulations, and educational standards
- Performing other related projects and duties as needed and assigned
Requirements: list bullet points from Position Requirements. Need to deduplicate? There's some duplication? Not obvious. We'll list:
- Bachelor's degree
- Passion for teaching with a pleasant and positive demeanor toward all forms of teaching and learning
- Strong classroom management experience
- Familiarity with hands-on teaching practices and the ability to teach multiple academic subjects
- Ability to collaborate and build strong relationships with faculty, administrators, students, parents, and the overall community
- Commitment to cultural competency and to fostering an inclusive environment that supports students of all backgrounds
- Excellent verbal, written, and oral communication skills
- Positive attitude and the ability to listen effectively and be receptive to feedback
- Ability to manage time effectively, stay organized, and prioritize required tasks
- Commitment to engaging in ongoing professional development and proficiency in utilizing and learning new technologies (i.e., Google Workspace tools)
- Reliability, punctuality, and consistent attendance
- Ability to cultivate a welcoming culture in which all members of the community feel valued and appreciated
Skills: Could we extract a separate skills section? Might be thin. But we could combine some of these into Skills: e.g., classroom management, hands-on teaching, multiple subjects, collaboration, communication, time management, technology proficiency, cultural competency. However that duplicates Requirements. Better to omit Skills section to avoid thin sections. The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we can omit Skills.
Pay:

The rate for a substitute is $25.00 per hour.
Schedule: Schedule
Hours are approximately 8 am–3:30 pm. Substitutes are needed for half‑day, full‑day, and extended subbing schedules throughout the school year.
We should also include maybe a note about onsite? Already in About the role.
Check for any other substantive info: The school description (Who we are?) includes mission, inclusion, etc. That's about the organization, not the role. Should we include that? The instruction: Preserve ALL substantive information. So we need to include that info somewhere. It is not about the role but about the school. Could we put it under About the role? Might be okay as background. But the heading "About the role" is for role specifics; but we could include school description as part of About the role? Might be considered not strictly role but still substantive. However we could create a separate section like "About the school" but not allowed headings. So we must fit into allowed headings. Perhaps we can include it under About the role as a preamble. That would preserve the info. It's not duplicated elsewhere. So we can add a paragraph about the school's mission, inclusion, etc.
Thus About the role will have two paragraphs: first about school, second about position.
Let's craft About the role:
Ethical Culture Fieldston School is a progressive PreK‑12 independent school serving students from throughout New York City and the surrounding suburbs since 1878. It offers a rich curriculum in the arts, sciences, and humanities, is co‑ed and nonsectarian, and serves an inclusive community of about 1,700 students on two campuses (Riverdale in the Bronx and Manhattan).
