Abstract:
This study will collect information about policy and program implementation of the grants administered under Title IV, Part A of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965, as amended by the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA), to describe and report on districts’ decision-making process for use of Title IV, Part A funds, how states help inform districts’ decisions, and what topic areas and activities are funded with Title IV, Part A funds. The revision will amend the study to eliminate an optional survey planned for 2024 and add a new information collection. The new collection will obtain information about a new grant administered through Title IV-A, the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act (BSCA) Stronger Connections (SC) grant program, which awards funds to states and districts to promote safer, more inclusive learning environments and support the social, emotional, physical, and mental health of students.

Short Statement:
This study of Title IV-A programs is being revised due to a law passed by Congress after OMB cleared the original data collection. The law, the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act (BSCA), significantly impacted Title IV-A through its Stronger Connections (SC) grant program, which provides an additional $1 billion to enhance states’ and districts’ Title IV-A activities that promote safer, more inclusive learning environments and support the social, emotional, physical, and mental health of students. To better align the study’s data collection plans and timeline to this recent development—Congress passed BSCA in June 2022, with funds only starting to flow to states in the fall of 2023—IES is requesting approval to conduct a follow-up state survey in lieu of the previously-approved optional district survey. No other changes are requested. The estimated net change in response burden is a reduction from 982 hours to 516.7 hours across the three-year study period. The new annual estimated cost is reduced from $15,495 to $8,154, a net decrease of $7,341. The annual cost burden for new data collection for this revised ICR should not exceed $8,154.
