Abstract:
Student Support Services (SSS) program grantees must submit the Annual Performance Report (APR) annually. The reports are used to evaluate grantees' performance for substantial progress, respond to Government Performance and Results Act requirements, and award prior experience points at the end of each project (budget) period. The Department also aggregates the data to provide descriptive information on the projects and to analyze the impact of the SSS program on the academic progress of participating students. The form has been revised to include an additional field addressing the Higher Education Act provision that requires the Secretary to report comparable data on the performance of not only first-generation and low-income students but also on students with disabilities. This field adds a small amount of additional burden per grantee.
