Tracking Head Start Impact Study Participants Beyond 8th Grade

Spring 2012 Parent Tracking Interview



Good [morning, afternoon or evening]. Is this (NAME OF RESPONDENT)? (IF NO, ASK FOR RESPONDENT; IF NOT AVAILABLE, ASK WHEN TO CALL BACK TO TALK WITH HIM/HER.) My name is ______________________, and I’m calling you as a former participant in the Head Start Impact Study and follow-ups. Data collection for the earlier studies has ended; however, in anticipation of a future follow-up, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services has decided to keep in touch with the children and families beyond 8th grade through the high school years. We are contacting participating study families to maintain up-to-date information. We’d like to ask you a few, brief questions, much like the ones we asked last spring. The interview should take about 15 minutes to complete. We have a few questions about your child’s school and some questions to help make it possible to contact you if we need to in the future.


We would like to thank you for completing this brief phone interview by sending you a check in the amount of 20 dollars. We would like to remind you that all information collected is confidential and will be kept private except as required by law. Your participation is voluntary. You may quit the interview at any time. Your participation will not result in the loss of any current benefits you may have. We truly appreciate your help and your continued support of this important study. May we begin now? (IF AGREES, CONTINUE WITH THE INTERVIEW. IF NO, ASK: When would you like to schedule a date and time to complete this short interview?)


NOTICE: According to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, no persons are required to respond to a collection of information unless it displays a valid OMB Control Number. The valid OMB Control Number for this information collection is 0970-0229 (expires________). The time required to complete this information collection is estimated to average 15 – 20 minutes per response, including time to review instructions, search existing data resources, gather the data needed, and complete and review the information collection.
