Temporary Special Education Teacher (K-3 SPED LBS)

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We need to parse the posting. First, "ABOUT CPS:" is about the district, not necessarily "About the role". Could be considered "About the role"? The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can include "About the role" if there is content describing the role. The posting includes "Position Title: Diverse Learners Teacher Under the supervision of the school principal, teachers are responsible for the instruction, progress, tracking, and discipline of all students in assigned classes, and performs other duties as assigned and required." That's description of role. Also "Specialty Functions" etc. So we can put that under About the role. Responsibilities: The "Essential Functions" list includes many duties. Those are responsibilities. So we can create Responsibilities section with list items. Requirements: Minimum Qualifications & Requirements includes bachelor's degree, CPS online application, valid teaching license, etc. Also Physical Requirements, Employment Expectations (residency, onboarding). Those are requirements. Could separate Qualifications vs Requirements? The instruction includes both Qualifications and Requirements as possible sections. We need to decide what goes where. Typically Qualifications: education, license, etc. Requirements: maybe physical requirements, residency, background checks. We'll split. Skills: maybe not explicitly listed; there is "Exhibit excellent oral and written communication skills, strong interpersonal skills, and exercise sound, professional judgment". Also "Demonstrate a deep understanding of content, pedagogy, and student knowledge". Those could be skills. We'll include Skills section. Benefits: The posting includes a Benefits section with health & wellness, financial security, work-life balance. So include Benefits. Pay: Salary Range given: $64,469.94 to $82,839.39. So include Pay. Schedule: Not mentioned. No schedule info. So we omit Schedule. We must not include boilerplate like EEO, legal, etc. Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. So we need to strip out the EEO statements, contact numbers, etc. Also remove "Posting Date Aug 19, 2026, 10:56:02 AM Primary Location North/Northwest Side-3020 North Lamon Avenue (Laughlin Falconer School)" maybe considered metadata; we can drop or fold into short p. The instruction: do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

or drop it. So we could include a short p for posting date and location, but not as heading. However we might just drop it to keep concise. The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Posting date and location are substantive? Might be considered metadata but still info. Could include a short p at top:

Posted Aug 19, 2026 • North/Northwest Side, 3020 N Lamon Ave (Laughlin Falconer School)

. That's acceptable. Now we need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. We'll structure:

About the role

Under the supervision of the school principal, the Diverse Learners Teacher is responsible for the instruction, progress, tracking, and discipline of all students in assigned classes, and performs other duties as assigned and required.

Maybe also include specialty functions? Those are more like responsibilities. Could incorporate into Responsibilities. Better: About the role could include the mission statement? The "ABOUT CPS:" paragraph is about district mission. Could be included under About the role as context. But we might keep it separate? The instruction says use headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, etc. So we can put the district mission under About the role as well. Let's craft About the role paragraph: combine district mission and role description. Now Responsibilities: list essential functions. We need to extract each essential function bullet. From text: "Essential Functions Within the context of the CPS Framework for Teaching, all teachers should utilize a continuous improvement process that refines his or her teaching practice. Each teacher should... - Demonstrate a deep understanding of content, pedagogy, and student knowledge, in order to select learning objectives and design coherent instruction and assessments - Create an environment for effective student learning and growth by establishing a respectful classroom culture with strong management of student behaviors and classroom procedures that promotes and appreciates the cultural, racial, and linguistic diversity of students - Respond to the needs of all students by designing engaging classroom instruction with appropriately challenging questions, communication and discussion techniques, and instructionally aligned assessments - Exhibit excellent oral and written communication skills, strong interpersonal skills, and exercise sound, professional judgment especially in interactions with administration, colleagues, families, and students - Prioritize student safety through consistent implementation of the Student Code of Conduct and school wide systems of management and discipline - Personalize student learning through mastery and innovative use of curriculum supplements and technology resources, as available - Advocate for the district’s vision and commit to our district’s common themes of equity, cultural competence, high expectations, developmental appropriateness, attention to individual students (including those with special needs), appropriate use of technology, and student assumption of responsibility" We'll turn each into

. Now Requirements: Minimum Qualifications & Requirements: - A bachelor's degree or higher from a regionally accredited institution of higher education - Completion of the CPS online application and teaching profile at cps.edu/teach - A valid teaching license issued by the Illinois State Board of Education, with the appropriate endorsement(s) for the role - information on obtaining a valid teacher license can be found at isbe.net/licensure Also Physical Requirements: - Light Work: Exerting up to twenty (20) pounds of force occasionally, or up to ten (10) pounds of force frequently, or a negligible amount of force constantly to move objects. Employment Expectations: - As a condition of employment with CPS, an employee must be an actual resident of the City of Chicago or be willing to become a resident within six months of the date of his/her employment with Chicago Public Schools. For certain high-needs positions, exemptions to this policy may be available. - All new hires must satisfactorily complete all CPS on boarding requirements which include, but are not limited to, passing a tuberculosis test, drug test and state and federal criminal background checks. - CPS is a drug and alcohol free workplace. We could split: Requirements (education, license, application) and Qualifications maybe same? But we have both headings possible. Let's assign: Qualifications: education, license, application. Requirements: physical requirements, employment expectations (residency, onboarding, drug-free). Skills: from essential functions we can extract skills: deep understanding of content, pedagogy, student knowledge; ability to design instruction; classroom management; communication; interpersonal; professional judgment; student safety; use of technology; advocacy for district vision; etc. But many overlap with responsibilities. Perhaps better to put skills separate: "Excellent oral and written communication skills, strong interpersonal skills, sound professional judgment", "Deep understanding of content, pedagogy, and student knowledge", "Ability to design engaging instruction and assessments", "Classroom management and behavior management", "Proficiency with curriculum supplements and technology", "Commitment to equity, cultural competence, high expectations". We'll create a list. Benefits: we have detailed benefits. We'll list as

• each bullet. Benefits section includes: Health & Wellness: - Medical Plan Options - Pharmacy - Dental - Vision - Behavioral Health & EAP - Employee Wellness Program Financial Security: - Basic Life Insurance - Life and Disability Insurance - Pension Plans - Supplemental Retirement Plans (403(b) and 457(b)) - Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs) - Spot Pet Insurance Work-Life Balance: - Paid Leave - Sick Leave - Vacation Days - Parental Leaves - Short-Term Disability - Religious Holidays Leaves We'll combine into one list or separate subheadings? The instruction only allows headings from list; we cannot add custom headings like Health & Wellness. So we just list all benefits as items. Pay: Salary Range $64,469.94 to $82,839.39. Now we need to ensure we don't include boilerplate: EEO statements, contact numbers, etc. Remove them. Also remove duplicated lines. Now produce HTML. Let's craft:
