We need to output HTML fragment with headings

for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections if posting has real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate. Must preserve all substantive info. We need to parse the posting. Job Title: Teacher (we ignore as heading). Wage/Hour Status: Exempt (maybe not needed). Reports to: Principal (metadata). Pay Grade: Teacher Salary Schedule (maybe not needed). Dept./School: PreK - 12. Length of Contract: 10.0 mos. Primary Purpose: Provide students with appropriate learning activities... (that's about the role). So we can have About the role section with that paragraph. Qualifications: Education/Certification: Bachelor's degree from accredited university; Valid Texas teaching certificate with required endorsements or required training for subject and level assigned; Demonstrated competency in the core academic subject area assigned. Special Knowledge/Skills: Knowledge of core academic subject assigned; General knowledge of curriculum and instruction; Ability to instruct students and manage their behavior; Strong organizational, communication, and interpersonal skills. Experience: At least one-year student teaching or approved internship. Major Responsibilities And Duties: includes several bullet-like sentences. We need to turn into
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we need to list each duty as li. We have categories: Instructional Strategies, Student Growth and Development, Classroom Management and Organization, Communication, Professional Growth and Development, General Employee Requirements, Supervisory Responsibilities, Working Conditions (Mental Demands/Physical Demands/Environmental Factors). Also there is a note: "The foregoing statements describe the general purpose and responsibilities assigned to this job and are not an exhaustive list..." That's boilerplate? Might be considered generic but we can keep as prose maybe? It's not a duty but a disclaimer. Might be considered boilerplate? It's not cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. It's a generic statement; but we should preserve substantive information. It's not really substantive but it's part of description. Might keep as a paragraph under Responsibilities? Probably okay. We need sections: About the role (Primary Purpose). Responsibilities (Major Responsibilities And Duties). Requirements (maybe Education/Certification + Experience). Qualifications (maybe Special Knowledge/Skills). Skills (maybe combine with Qualifications? But we need to follow instruction: use headings for those categories if content exists. We have content for Qualifications (Education/Certification) and Special Knowledge/Skills (skills). Experience could be under Requirements. Let's decide: - About the role: Primary Purpose paragraph. - Responsibilities: list of duties (Instructional Strategies etc). We'll make a
      with each duty as li. Could group by subheadings? Not allowed; only headings are those specific. So we just list all duties as li. - Requirements: Education/Certification + Experience (At least one-year student teaching). Could also include "Valid Texas teaching certificate..." etc. That's qualification but we can put under Requirements. - Qualifications: maybe Special Knowledge/Skills (knowledge, ability, skills). Could also include "Demonstrated competency in the core academic subject area assigned" (that's under Education/Certification). Might be overlapping. But we need to avoid duplication. Let's split: Education/Certification under Requirements. Special Knowledge/Skills under Qualifications. Experience under Requirements as well. Skills: maybe we could put "Strong organizational, communication, and interpersonal skills" under Skills. But we already have those under Special Knowledge/Skills. Could treat Skills as separate but we might duplicate. Better to follow the headings: we have content for Skills (Strong organizational, communication, and interpersonal skills). Also Ability to instruct students and manage their behavior (skill). Knowledge of core academic subject assigned (knowledge). General knowledge of curriculum and instruction (knowledge). So we can put those under Skills. Qualifications could be Education/Certification + Demonstrated competency? Actually Demonstrated competency is under Education/Certification bullet. So Qualifications could be Education/Certification. But we already have Requirements for Education/Certification. Might be confusing. Let's map: - About the role: Primary Purpose. - Responsibilities: Major Responsibilities And Duties (all bullet points). - Requirements: Education/Certification (Bachelor's degree, Valid Texas teaching certificate, Demonstrated competency) + Experience (At least one-year student teaching or approved internship). - Qualifications: Special Knowledge/Skills (Knowledge of core academic subject assigned; General knowledge of curriculum and instruction; Ability to instruct students and manage their behavior; Strong organizational, communication, and interpersonal skills). - Skills: maybe we could leave empty? But we already put skills under Qualifications. Could we omit Skills section? The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we can combine skills into Qualifications and not create a separate Skills heading if it would be thin. But we have content for Skills; but we already placed them under Qualifications. That's okay; we just won't output a Skills heading. - Benefits, Pay, Schedule: not present (no specifics). So omit. Thus we will output sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications. Make sure to use

      for each heading. Inside each section, use

      for prose,

      • for lists. For About the role: we have a paragraph: "Provide students with appropriate learning activities and experiences in the core academic subject area assigned to help them fulfill their potential for intellectual, emotional, physical, and social growth. Enable students to develop competencies and skills to function successfully in society." We can put as

        . For Responsibilities: we need to list each duty. Let's extract all duty sentences from the "Major Responsibilities And Duties" section. The text: Instructional Strategies Develop and implement lesson plans that fulfill the requirements of district's curriculum program and show written evidence of preparation as required. Prepare lessons that reflect accommodations for differences in student learning styles. Present subject matter according to guidelines established by Texas Education Agency, board policies, and administrative regulations. Plan and use appropriate instructional and learning strategies, activities, materials, and equipment that reflect understanding of the learning styles and needs of students assigned. Conduct assessment of student learning styles and use results to plan instructional activities. Work cooperatively with special education teachers to modify curricula as needed for special education students according to guidelines established in Individual Education Plans (IEP). Work with other members of staff to determine instructional goals, objectives, and methods according to district requirements. Plan and supervise assignments of teacher aide(s) and volunteer(s). Use technology to strengthen the teaching/learning process. Student Growth and Development Help students analyze and improve study methods and habits. Conduct ongoing assessment of student achievement through formal and informal testing. Assume responsibility for extracurricular activities as assigned. Sponsor outside activities approved by the campus principal. Be a positive role model for students, support mission of school district. Classroom Management and Organization Create classroom environment conducive to learning and appropriate for the physical, social, and emotional development of students. Manage student behavior in accordance with Student Code of Conduct and student handbook. Take all necessary and reasonable precautions to protect students, equipment, materials, and facilities. Assist in selection of books, equipment, and other instructional materials. Communication Establish and maintain open communication by conducting conferences with parents, students, principals, and teachers. Maintain a professional relationship with colleagues, students, parents, and community members. Use effective communication skills to present information accurately and clearly. Professional Growth and Development Participate in staff development activities to improve job-related skills. Keep informed of and comply with state, district, and school regulations and policies for classroom teachers. Compile, maintain, and file all physical and computerized reports, records, and other documents required. Attend and participate in faculty meetings and serve on staff committees as required. General Employee Requirements Support and align work with the mission, vision, and beliefs of the district. Follow and support board policies in areas of related responsibility. Ensure district resources are managed effectively to maximize resources for student learning. Share in the development and implementation of district success plans. Actively participate in ongoing development to improve work quality and district contribution. Model integrity, work ethic, and professionalism as a suitable example for LISD students. Supervisory Responsibilities Supervise assigned teacher aide(s). Working Conditions Mental Demands/Physical Demands/Environmental Factors: Maintain emotional control under stress. Frequent standing, stooping, bending, pulling and pushing. Move small stacks of textbooks, media equipment, desks, and other classroom equipment. Then there is a note: "The foregoing statements describe the general purpose and responsibilities assigned to this job and are not an exhaustive list of all responsibilities and duties that may be assigned or skills that may be required." This is a disclaimer; we could include as a paragraph after the list, but it's somewhat generic. Might be considered boilerplate? It's not navigation/legal/EEO, but it's a generic statement. I'd keep it as a paragraph under Responsibilities maybe. We need to ensure we don't repeat headings inside list. We'll just output all duties as li items, preserving the text exactly. Now Requirements section: Education/Certification and Experience. Education/Certification bullet points: - Bachelor's degree from accredited university - Valid Texas teaching certificate with required endorsements or required training for subject and level assigned - Demonstrated competency in the core academic subject area assigned Experience: - At least one-year student teaching or approved internship We'll put as

        • . Qualifications section: Special Knowledge/Skills: - Knowledge of core academic subject assigned - General knowledge of curriculum and instruction - Ability to instruct students and manage their behavior - Strong organizational, communication, and interpersonal skills We'll output as
          • . Now ensure we don't include any boilerplate like "Wage/Hour Status: Exempt", "Reports to: Principal", "Pay Grade: Teacher Salary Schedule", "Dept./School: PreK - 12", "Length of Contract: 10.0 mos." Those are metadata; we should drop them per instruction: "do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

            or drop it." So we can drop them entirely. Not needed. Now output HTML fragment. Structure:
