Teaching Assistant - ACCEPT at Medway Middle School

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. Do not include Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate. We need to extract content: The posting includes description about organization, role, pay starting at $23.34 hour, also later Salary: $24 to $34 Per Hour (contradiction). We need to preserve all substantive info. We need to decide sections. We have: - About the role: description of organization and role: "ACCEPT Education Collaborative is a regional non-profit educational organization..." and "ACCEPT is seeking dynamic and compassionate teaching assistants to work in our Middle and High School Programs in Medway. We offer competitive compensation and benefits packages, a collaborative work environment and professional training and support." - Responsibilities: list under "Essential Functions And Responsibilities" and "Things To Do Daily". Those are many bullet-like sentences. We'll put them in

• . - Requirements: maybe "Qualifications Required" list. - Qualifications: maybe "Qualifications Desired". Could combine? But we have separate sections: Qualifications (maybe required) and Skills? The instruction says use headings for section headings e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide which to include based on content. We have: - Requirements: maybe citizenship, residency or work visa required (under Job Requirements). Also maybe "Required" qualifications list. - Qualifications: maybe "Qualifications Desired" (Bachelor’s Degree etc). Could also include required qualifications as Qualifications? But we have separate headings. - Skills: maybe list of skills like "Excellent communication skills, verbal and written", "Ability to work well and remain calm under pressure", etc. Those are in qualifications required list. - Benefits: posting mentions "competitive compensation and benefits packages" but no specifics. No explicit benefits listed. So we should NOT include Benefits section because no specific content. - Pay: posting says "Pay starting at $23.34 hour!" and later "Salary:$24 to $34 Per Hour". So we have pay info. Include Pay section with that info. - Schedule: posting mentions "Starting Date: Immediately", "Application Deadline: Posted until filled", "Position Type:Full-time". Also maybe schedule not detailed. But we have full-time. Could include Schedule section with "Full-time" and maybe "Starting Immediately". However schedule usually refers to work schedule (hours). Not given. But we have Position Type:Full-time. Could treat as schedule. The instruction: include section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it. "Full-time" is specific. So we can include Schedule with "Full-time". Also "Starting Date: Immediately" could be in schedule or about role. Might put in About the role. We must not include placeholder like "commensurate with experience". We have actual numbers. We must not repeat job title as heading. So no heading for "Middle School - Medway, Massachusetts". Already not. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. Structure:

Could include but it's nonessential; maybe we can include under Responsibilities as additional. We'll include all. Now produce HTML. Make sure to not include any boilerplate like EEO etc. We'll output:
