Abstract: The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act, signed on December 3, 2004, became PL 108-446. In accordance with 20 U.S.C. 1416(b)(1), not later than 1 year after the date of enactment of the Individuals with Disabilities Education, each State must have in place a performance plan that evaluates the State’s efforts to implement the requirements and purposes of Part B and describe how the State will improve such implementation. This plan is called the Part B State Performance Plan (Part B - S PP). In accordance with 20 U.S.C. 1416(b)(2)(C)(ii) the State shall report annually to the public on the performance of each local educational agency located in the State on the targets in the State’s performance plan. The State also shall report annually to the Secretary on the performance of the State under the State’s performance plan. This report is called the Part B Annual Performance Report (Part B - APR). Information Collection 1820-0624 corresponds to 34 CFR §§300.600-300.602.

Short Statement: There is a program change reduction of 11,400 burden hours from the previous collection. The following revisions, made after considering stakeholder input, account for the significant reduction in burden hours. Currently approved Indicators 16 and 17 have been eliminated. Currently approved Indicator 20 – Respondents will no longer be required to report a percentage for this indicator with the APR submission. OSEP will complete the analysis and send the information to the respondent during the period of clarification. As a result of these revisions, respondents will be required to report on 18 indicators, instead of the currently approved 20 indicators. The measurement table attached to this package reflects these revisions.
