Abstract:
Federal funds account for less than 10 percent of K–12 education spending nationally but can play an important role, particularly in communities that are lower-income or have lower-performing schools. Although each federal education program has unique goals and provisions, they often allow funds to be used for similar purposes and services or overlapping populations. Congress provided state and local education agencies greater flexibility in their use of federal funds through the 2015 reauthorization of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA). As the COVID-19 pandemic began to disrupt schools in 2020, Congress also created new programs to provide funding and flexibilities for states and districts to respond to the emergency. Because policymakers remain interested in how federal dollars are spent, this study will examine the distribution and use of pandemic relief funds and explore the possibility of examining those issues for five ”core” federal education programs that represent the vast share of the Department’s K-12 grant making: Part A of Titles I, II, III, and IV of ESEA, and Title I, Part B of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA).

Miscellaneous Actions
Short Statement:
This is a request for an extension of a currently approved collection. The extension of the ICR will result in a reduction in total burden, a result of several factors. The previously approved package reported total burden as a three-year total (rather than an annual total) and reported burden for the fiscal and personnel data collection with a slightly higher number of respondents and three collection rounds. This package corrects the total estimate by identifying it as an annualized estimate and corrects the estimates of burden for fiscal and personnel data collection by lowering the number of respondents, removing rounds of data collection that did not occur, and adding the hours estimated for thorough follow-up of the round that did occur. The estimated net change in response burden is a reduction of 5,587 hours and a reduction of 549 responses across the three-year study period. Estimates in section 5 are further reduced because of the annualization correction. Total burden hours and responses are 250 responses and 1,630 hours.
