Tool Search: Early Targeted Interventions
The Early Targeted Interventions tool documents students in grade PK-03 and their eligibility for Montana's Early Literacy and/or Early Numeracy State Programs. This tool is read-only for Montana State Edition users.
List Screen
The List Screen displays all Early Literacy and Early Numeracy records for the student. Select an existing record or the New button to open the Detail Screen.

Read - View the Early Targeted Interventions tool and existing records.
Write - Edit existing records.
Add - Add new records.
Delete - Delete existing records.
Business Logic
- A student may only have one active Early Literacy and Early Numeracy record at a time.
- Early Literacy and Early Numeracy records can have overlapping dates, but dates for an Early Literacy record cannot overlap with dates for another Early Literacy record, and dates for an Early Numeracy record cannot overlap with dates for another Early Numeracy record.
- Early Literacy and Early Numeracy records are considered program records, and each instance of a student's participation in the program has a start and end date.
- Early Literacy and Early Numeracy Start and End Dates are NOT tied to the student Enrollment or School Calendar records.
- The Federal/State Program Updater can bulk update Early Literacy and Early Numeracy records.
- State and District-defined elements are allowed.
Detail Screen
The Detail Screen allows users with the appropriate tool rights to view and modify the student's Early Literacy and Early Numeracy records. For additional information, see the Tool Rights section.
