We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must include only sections with real content. The posting includes Primary Purpose (maybe About the role), Qualifications, Special Knowledge/Skills, Terms Of Employment (Probationary/Term Contract: 187 days, Salary Pay Grade T60), Essential Functions (list of duties). Also includes Physical Demands etc. Also includes Application Information (boilerplate to remove). Also includes "Become a Teacher In Texas" link (maybe remove as application instruction). We need to preserve all substantive info, remove boilerplate.
We need to decide sections: Could have About the role (Primary Purpose). Responsibilities (Essential Functions). Qualifications (Education/Certification). Skills (Special Knowledge/Skills). Pay (Salary Pay Grade T60). Schedule (Probationary/Term Contract: 187 days). Benefits? Not mentioned. So we omit Benefits.
We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID.

We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID.
We need to use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. For prose use
. For sections we need
heading.
We need to preserve all substantive info: include note about Physical Education Teachers needing AED/CPR certificate (both in Qualifications and Tools/Equipment). Also include note about "Must be willing to obtain and maintain a current automated external defibrillator (AED) and CPR certificate". That appears twice; we should keep it but not duplicate? We can include once in Qualifications and once in Tools/Equipment maybe under Physical Demands? But we can include as part of Qualifications and also under Physical Demands/Environmental Factors? The instruction: preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep both occurrences? Might be okay to keep both but could be considered duplication. However they said remove duplicated lines. So we should deduplicate identical lines. The line appears twice exactly: "[Physical Education Teachers: Must be willing to obtain and maintain a current automated external defibrillator (AED) and CPR certificate]" appears in Qualifications and again in Tools/Equipment Used. So we should keep only one occurrence. Where to place? Probably under Qualifications (since it's a certification requirement). We'll keep it there and omit duplicate in Tools/Equipment.
Also need to include "Tools/Equipment Used: Personal computer and peripherals; standard instructional equipment;" plus maybe the AED/CPR note removed. So we keep that.
Also include "Posture: Prolonged standing; frequent kneeling/squatting, bending/stooping, pushing/pulling, and twisting", "Motion: Frequent walking", "Lifting: Regular light lifting and carrying (less than 15 pounds); may lift and move text books and classroom equipment", "Environment: Work inside, may work outside; regular exposure to noise", "Mental Demands: Maintain emotional control under stress; work prolonged or irregular hours". These are part of Mental Demands/Physical Demands/Environmental Factors. Should we put them under a section? Could be part of Responsibilities or a separate section like Working Conditions? Not in allowed headings list. Allowed headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We could incorporate these details into Responsibilities or maybe Requirements? They are not exactly responsibilities but working conditions. Could put under Responsibilities as part of job description. Or we could create a section "Requirements" for physical demands? But the instruction: Use headings only for those listed. So we must fit content under those headings. We can put physical demands under Responsibilities (as part of job duties) or under Requirements (maybe as "Requirements" includes physical demands). I'd put them under Responsibilities as they describe what the job entails.
We also have "Supervisory Responsibilities Direct the work of instructional aide(s), if assigned." That's a responsibility.
We have "Professional Growth and Development" etc. Also responsibilities.
Thus we can structure:
