We must preserve all substantive info, not invent or summarize away detail. Remove boilerplate, navigation, legal, EEO, duplicated lines, application instructions.
We need to parse the description.
Given posting:
- Posting Name: Teacher Assistant SPED SCD
- Location: 06 Creekbend Elem/Middle
- Posting Begin Date: 09/21/2026
- Posting End Date: N/A
- Full Time: Yes
- Job Category: Non-Certified
- Application Schedule: 184 Days
- Salary: N/A
- Licensed Position: No
Description: Teacher Assistant Qualifications ... etc.
We need sections: About the role (maybe a brief overview), Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We need to decide which sections have content.
From posting:
- About the role: Could be description of job goal: "The aide will support the educational and instructional goals of the teacher by assisting the teacher in planning and developing the individualized training program for the students." That's a role overview.
- Responsibilities: List of essential functions: many bullet-like sentences. We can put them in - .
- Requirements: Might include qualifications: "Must have completed at least 2 years of study forty-eight (48) semester hours, at an institution of higher education; or obtained an associate’s degree; or met a rigorous standard of quality as determined by a formal assessment, (Mississippi Test: ACT Work Keys – Reading for Information, Applied Mathematics and Writing Subtests). In accordance with Mississippi Code S37-9-17, all personnel employed by the public-school system shall be required to pass a criminal background check and a current child abuse registry check.A satisfactory employment record."
- Qualifications: Might be overlapping with requirements. The posting uses "Qualifications" heading in description. We could treat that as Qualifications section.
- Skills: Not explicitly listed, but we could infer from responsibilities: model good reading, writing, speaking skills; conduct learning exercises; guide children; monitor assignments; alert teacher; provide escort; remain alert to hazards; assist teacher in maintaining records; collect/display material; assist in coaching physical activities. Those could be considered skills. But we should not invent; we can list them as skills if they are explicitly mentioned as skills. The posting mentions "Model good reading, writing, and speaking skills for students." That's a skill. Also "conducting learning exercises", "guide children", etc. Might be okay to put under Skills.
- Benefits: Not mentioned; salary N/A; benefits not specified. So we should NOT include Benefits section.
- Pay: Salary N/A, so we should NOT include Pay section (since it's not specified). The rule: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. Salary is N/A, so we should not include Pay.
- Schedule: Application Schedule: 184 Days. Also Full Time Yes. So we have schedule info: 184 days annually. That's specific. So we can include Schedule section with that info.
Also we have location, posting dates, etc. Might be considered metadata; we could fold into a short
under About the role or maybe a separate meta section but not required. The instruction: do NOT put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. So we can include a short paragraph with location and dates maybe under About the role.
We must not repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it). So we should not have

. Good.
We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences.
Let's structure:
About the role
Location: 06 Creekbend Elem/Middle. Posting begin date: 09/21/2026. Full‑time position.
The aide will support the educational and instructional goals of the teacher by assisting the teacher in planning and developing the individualized training program for the students.
Responsibilities
- Participate in district and school professional development programs.
- Comply with all district policies and procedures.
- Participate in daily and long‑range lesson and classroom activity planning, including a minimum of thirty (30) minutes per week of instructional planning with the certified teacher.
- Model good reading, writing, and speaking skills for students.
- Work directly with students reinforcing skills taught by a certified teacher, including conducting learning exercises with large and small groups in basic language, reading, mathematics, and social skills.
- Guide children in working and playing harmoniously with other children.
- Monitor written assignments and report misunderstandings to the certified teacher for immediate re‑teaching/reinforcement.
- Alert the certified teacher to special needs of individual children.
- Provide escort and assistance to students as necessary (cafeteria, restroom, water fountain, playground).
- Remain alert to hazards such as obstructed walkways, unsafe playground equipment, unauthorized personnel, unsafe floor surfaces, etc.
- Assist the certified teacher in maintaining individual student records.
- Collect and display suitable material for educational displays.
- Assist the certified teacher in coaching physical activities that strengthen large motor skills.
- Perform any other duties within the scope of this job description as assigned by the Principal and/or Certified Teacher.
- Perform other related tasks as assigned by the Principal, Superintendent, and other central office administrators as designated by the Superintendent.
Requirements
Must have completed at least two years of study (forty‑eight semester hours) at an institution of higher education, or obtained an associate’s degree, or met a rigorous standard of quality as determined by a formal assessment (Mississippi Test: ACT Work Keys – Reading for Information, Applied Mathematics and Writing Subtests).
Must pass a criminal background check and a current child abuse registry check in accordance with Mississippi Code S37‑9‑17.
Maintain a satisfactory employment record.
Qualifications
Same as requirements: completion of 48 semester hours or associate’s degree, or meeting the ACT Work Keys standard; successful background and child abuse registry checks; satisfactory employment record.
But we might be duplicating. The posting has a "Qualifications" section that includes the same content as requirements. We could combine or keep separate but avoid duplication? The instruction: Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep the qualifications content as given. It's okay to repeat if it's in the posting. However we should not invent. We could keep Qualifications as a separate section with the same text.
But we might combine Requirements and Qualifications into one? The instruction says prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. Having both Requirements and Qualifications with similar content might be thin. Better to have one section that covers both, maybe named "Requirements and Qualifications". But the instruction says use headings exactly from list: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. It didn't say we must use all; we can choose which to include. If we include both Requirements and Qualifications, we risk duplication. Perhaps we can put the detailed qualification criteria under Requirements, and under Qualifications we can put a brief statement like "Meets the qualifications outlined above." But that would be summarizing/inventing? Might be okay but risk of adding not present. Better to keep only one of them. Which is more appropriate? The posting has a "Qualifications" heading in the description, then lists qualifications. There's no separate "Requirements" heading. So we should treat that as Qualifications section. The "Requirements" heading could be used for other requirements like background check, employment record. But those are also part of qualifications. However we can split: Requirements: background check, employment record. Qualifications: education/associate degree/ACT Work Keys. That seems reasonable and not duplicative.
Thus:
Requirements
- Pass a criminal background check and a current child abuse registry check (Mississippi Code S37‑9‑17).
- Maintain a satisfactory employment record.
Qualifications
Must have completed at least two years of study (forty‑eight semester hours) at an institution of higher education, or obtained an associate’s degree, or met a rigorous standard of quality as determined by a formal assessment (Mississippi Test: ACT Work Keys – Reading for Information, Applied Mathematics and Writing Subtests).
Now Skills: we can extract from responsibilities those that are skill-based: model good reading, writing, speaking skills; conduct learning exercises; guide children; monitor assignments; alert teacher; provide escort; remain alert to hazards; assist teacher in maintaining records; collect/display material; assist in coaching physical activities. We'll list them as skills.
Skills
- Model good reading, writing, and speaking skills for students.
- Conduct learning exercises with large and small groups in basic language, reading, mathematics, and social skills.
- Guide children to work and play harmoniously with peers.
- Monitor written assignments and identify misunderstandings for re‑teaching.
- Alert the certified teacher to special needs of individual children.
- Provide escort and assistance to students (cafeteria, restroom, water fountain, playground).
- Remain alert to hazards such as obstructed walkways, unsafe equipment, unauthorized personnel, unsafe floor surfaces.
- Assist the certified teacher in maintaining individual student records.
- Collect and display suitable material for educational displays.
- Assist in coaching physical activities that strengthen large motor skills.
Schedule: we have "Application Schedule: 184 Days". Also Full Time Yes. So schedule section: 184 days annually.
Schedule
184 work days per year (full‑time).
We should not include Pay or Benefits.
Now About the role: we already have location and posting date and brief role overview.
We need to ensure we don't repeat job title as heading. Good.
We need to output only HTML fragment.
Let's craft final HTML.
Check for any boilerplate removal: we removed posting begin/end dates, full time, job category, licensed position, etc. We kept location and posting begin date in About the role. We omitted posting end date (N/A). We omitted application schedule (we used in Schedule). We omitted salary (N/A). We omitted licensed position. We omitted job category maybe not needed. We omitted "Non-Certified". Could be considered a requirement but not essential; but we could include under Requirements maybe? It's a job category. Might be considered metadata; we can drop.
We need to preserve all substantive information. The job category "Non-Certified" is substantive? Might be considered metadata but could be relevant. However the instruction says fold minor metadata into a short or drop it. So we can drop.
Now check that we didn't miss any substantive info from description: The description includes "Teacher Assistant Qualifications Must have completed at least 2 years of study forty-eight (48) semester hours, at an institution of higher education; or obtained an associate’s degree; or met a rigorous standard of quality as determined by a formal assessment, (Mississippi Test: ACT Work Keys – Reading for Information, Applied Mathematics and Writing Subtests).
