Amends existing law to revise provisions regarding the literacy intervention program.

This legislation builds upon the comprehensive literacy law which states that the Idaho Department of Education shall provide professional development for all Kindergarten through Grade 3 teachers and elementary administrators. This professional development shall include coaching and training for teachers based in the science of reading and evidence-based best practices. This will provide statewide professional development in the science of reading for all Kindergarten through Grade 3 teachers and elementary administrators, filling a critical gap in our statewide approach. It ensures existing literacy dollars are being expended in alignment with the science of reading and evidence-based best practices, maximizing student achievement in reading.
