Abstract:
The Study of District and School Uses of Federal Education Funds will examine targeting and resource allocation for five major federal education programs: Part A of Titles I, II, III, and IV of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) and Title I, Part B of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), as well as funds provided to school districts through the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act). The study will collect, from a nationally representative sample of 400 school districts, detailed data on revenues, expenditures, and personnel for the federal programs covered in this study. In addition, the study will collect data on suballocations of those federal funds to districts and schools to examine how the distribution of funds varies in relation to program goals and student needs and will conduct telephone interviews in nine districts to explore how districts use IDEA funds in conjunction with other federal, state, and local funds to meet the needs of students with disabilities. This package is the second of two OMB clearance requests for this study. A previous package, approved by OMB on (OMB 1850-0951) covered the selection and recruitment of a nationally representative sample of school districts and schools and collection of certain preliminary information from states (including lists of subgrantees and suballocation amounts for each program). The current submission is to request OMB clearance for the data collection instruments for this study. We anticipate beginning collection of subgrantee lists and other preliminary information in September 2020 and launching the district- and school-level data collection in January 2021.

Short Statement:
This is a revision of a currently approved collection.

This package requests approval for the remaining data collection instrument for collecting fiscal and personnel data from the sample of school districts as well as . The additional burden associated with these data collection instruments is 6,171 hours, or $277,695. This brings the total estimated burden to 7,191 hours, or $323,595.
