Temporary SPED Teacher (Middle School) Maternity Leave: Nov-May 2027)
for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections when posting has real specific content.
We have content: About CPS (mission). Could map to "About the role". The "Position Title: Diverse Learners Teacher" is title but we shouldn't repeat as heading. The description includes responsibilities: "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." Then "Specialty Functions" list: valid teaching license, set goals for IEP, work collaboratively, etc. Then "Essential Functions" list many duties. Then "Minimum Qualifications & Requirements": bachelor's degree, CPS online app, valid teaching license, physical requirements, employment expectations (residency, onboarding, drug test, etc). Then "Benefits" section with details. Then "Salary Range" gives pay. No schedule info.
Thus we need sections: About the role (maybe from ABOUT CPS), Responsibilities (from Essential Functions and Specialty Functions?), Requirements (maybe Minimum Qualifications & Requirements?), Qualifications (maybe overlapping with Requirements? Could combine but we need separate if content). Skills maybe not explicit. Benefits we have. Pay we have salary range. Schedule none -> omit.
We must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate like EEO etc. We should keep substantive info.
We need to use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We need to preserve all substantive info, not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to list each bullet as
- . Must not omit details.
Let's extract content.
ABOUT CPS paragraph: "We are an urban district on the rise. The support and resources we provide to our staff enables them to make the greatest difference where it’s needed most. Be a part of the change. Our mission is to provide a high quality public education for every child, in every neighborhood, that prepares each for success in college, career and civic life."
That's prose.
Position Title line not needed as heading.
Specialty Functions: bullet list? It's sentences: "A valid teaching license issued by the Illinois State Board of Education, endorsed in LBS1 Set goals for the individualized education plan that are achievable and comparable to a student's peers in accordance with the State of Illinois IEP guidelines Work collaboratively with case managers, counselors, and general education teachers to determine instructional and social needs of students that ensure success while also participating on the multidisciplinary team to promote students' wellbeing"
We could treat as list items: each sentence maybe separate. But we need to preserve all detail; we can split into list items.
Essential Functions: list of bullet-like sentences each starting with a verb. We'll make each as
- .
Minimum Qualifications & Requirements: list items: "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", "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 the Chicago Public Schools (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. It is the policy of the Board to prohibit unlawful discrimination, harassment and retaliation on the basis of any classifications protected by the Constitution of the United States, the Constitution of the State of Illinois and applicable federal, state or local laws or ordinances, including but not limited to discrimination on the basis of race, color, sex (including pregnancy discrimination), gender identity/expression, age, religion, disability, national origin or sexual orientation. Concerns or Inquiries should be made to the Equal Opportunity Compliance Office Administrator at (773) 553-1013. Inquiries concerning the application of Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 and related regulations concerning sex discrimination also should be referred to the CPS Equal Opportunity Compliance Office (773) 553-1195."
We need to remove EEO boilerplate? The instruction says remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The EEO statement is legal boilerplate; we should remove it. Also the contact numbers for EEO maybe also boilerplate. So we should strip that part. Also the "Physical Requirements" and "Employment Expectations" are substantive; keep them but maybe we can keep the residency requirement etc. The EEO statement we should remove.
Thus from Minimum Qualifications & Requirements we keep: bachelor's degree, CPS online app, valid teaching license, Physical Requirements, Employment Expectations (residency, onboarding, drug test, background checks, drug and alcohol free workplace). We'll keep those.
Benefits section: we have paragraphs describing Health & Wellness, Financial Security, Work-Life Balance. We'll need to turn each bullet list into
- . The benefits text includes headings like "Health & Wellness: Your Care, Your Choice" etc. We could treat each as a subsection but we only have Benefits heading. We can keep prose paragraphs and lists.
We need to extract list items: Under Health & Wellness: list items: Medical Plan Options, Pharmacy, Dental, Vision, Behavioral Health & EAP, Employee Wellness Program. Under 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. Under Work-Life Balance: Paid Leave, Sick Leave, Vacation Days, Parental Leaves, Short-Term Disability, Religious Holidays Leaves.
We'll make each as
- under appropriate subheadings? But we only have Benefits heading; we could embed subheadings as
? Not allowed; only for section headings. We could keep them as
with bold? Not allowed to invent tags. Probably we can keep them as
- directly under Benefits heading, but we lose categorization. However we must preserve all substantive info; we can still list them as items; categorization not required. So we can just list all benefit items as
- . That preserves info.
Pay: Salary Range $64,469.94 to $82,839.39. We'll make a
under Pay heading.
Schedule: none -> omit.
Now we need to decide which sections to include: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Benefits, Pay. Possibly Skills not present; omit.
We need to avoid duplication: Responsibilities and Essential Functions maybe overlapping; we can combine under Responsibilities. Requirements maybe Minimum Qualifications & Requirements. Qualifications maybe same as Requirements; but we need to decide. The instruction says prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we could combine Requirements and Qualifications into one section called "Requirements". Or we could have "Requirements" for minimum qualifications and "Qualifications" for preferred? Not present. So we can just have "Requirements". But we also have "Specialty Functions" and "Essential Functions" which are responsibilities. So we can have "Responsibilities". Then "About the role". Then "Requirements". Then "Benefits". Then "Pay". That's five sections.
We must not include empty sections.
