The Consolidated State Performance Report (CSPR) is the required annual reporting tool for each State, Bureau of Indian Education, District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico as authorized under Section 9303 of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA), as amended by the No Child Left behind Act of 2001 (NCLB). The Department uses the information derived from the CSPR to : (1) monitor and report its progress in meeting Strategic Plan goals; (2) assess and report individual program performance, including GPRA performance measures; (3) monitor States' implementation of No Child Left Behind and the extent to which States are meeting programs and accountability goals;(4)to identify areas for technical assistance to States and overall program improvement; and (5) to inform other reporting and program evaluation requirements specific to individual programs and including the Secretary's Annual State Report to Congress on No Child Left Behind. Specific to this submission, which requests the addition of new items to meet statutory and regulatory reporting requirements, Title I monitoring teams and other ED officials will use these data to ensure that State Educational Agencies, Local Educational Agencies, and schools implement science assessment requirements and school improvement activities in accordance with ESEA statute and regulations.

Some 2012-13 modifications, which added questions to the CSPR, were already cleared through OMB as a supplement to the 2011-12 documents. The added question increased burden. The removal of Section 2.2 as part of these technical changes will be a decrease to the burden, which will result in a net burden change of 18 less total burden hours for respondents. There is no change in the number of responses.
