The bill aims to revise the Early Literacy Targeted Intervention Program by expanding its scope to include scholastic literacy, which encompasses both reading and mathematics proficiency. Key amendments include allowing school districts to opt in to enroll one on-target student for every five eligible students in classroom-based or jumpstart interventions, as opposed to the previous ratio of one for every three students. Additionally, the bill stipulates that on-target students enrolled in these programs can be counted for Average Number Belonging (ANB) purposes, thereby impacting funding calculations.

Further changes involve the introduction of new definitions and evaluation methodologies to assess children's literacy and math proficiency. The bill mandates that school districts provide various intervention programs, including classroom-based, home-based, and jumpstart programs, while ensuring that these programs are research-based and cost-effective. The superintendent of public instruction is tasked with monitoring the efficacy of these interventions and reporting on their outcomes, including student progress and proficiency levels, to ensure accountability and continuous improvement in early literacy education.
