Abstract:
The Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS) and the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) request clearance to conduct the 2025 School Crime Supplement (SCS) as a supplement to the National Crime Victimization Survey (NCVS) to collect information about school-related victimization. The NCVS and all related contacts and protocols have been previously approved by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) (OMB Control No: 1121-0111) and this request is specifically for a supplemental data collection instrument that will be added to the approved NCVS core from January 2025 through June 2025. Typically, the SCS is administered every two years. However, the SCS was postponed from 2021 to 2022 as a result of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on in-person learning. Due to implementation of the redesigned core NCVS instrument, 2025 was chosen for the next SCS data collection. Minor revisions were made to the 2022 SCS questionnaire for the 2025 administration. Certain items specifically related to COVID-19 and its impact on schooling were removed from the questionnaire. In addition, changes were made to the series of questions on drug and alcohol availability, such as adding a question on tobacco and updating examples of drugs available within existing questions.

Short Statement:
