Abstract: The Administration for Children and Families (ACF) at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) seeks approval for an ongoing project to collect contact information from children and families who participated in the Head Start Impact Study (HSIS). In anticipation of conducting a potential HSIS follow-up during or soon after the high school years and to ensure high response rates for this follow-up, ACF will continue to contact and keep in touch with families for five years through the end of high school with information to be collected in spring 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015 and 2016 for the Head Start Impact Study (HSIS) Participants Beyond 8th Grade. We collected information in spring 2012, 2013 and 2014 as approved under OMB #0970-0229 (NOA 4/20/2012) and now seek OMB approval for the last two years' data collection in spring 2015 and spring 2016. Data collection will include telephone parent follow-up interviews (and in-person contact when necessary) to maintain updated contact information necessary for a potential follow-up study. Additionally, the parent interview will include a small set of items on children's special education needs, grade retention, school safety, school engagement, and parental monitoring to provide information on factors during adolescence that may influence long-term impacts of Head Start examined in a potential follow-up study.
