In February 2013, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) issued a Notice of Office of
Management and Budget Action (NOA) clearing the U.S. Department of Education to conduct the
Annual Mandatory Collection of Elementary and Secondary Education Data for EDFacts, SY 2013-14,
2014-15, and 2015-16 (OMB# 1875-0240). The NOA included terms of clearance (TOC) which
required that “The Department [of Education] will report back to OMB before their next renewal of this
collection about its retrospective review of all essential data currently being collected under EDFacts
and what can be eliminated or streamlined.” This submission amends the EDFacts record with a memo
addressing the 2013 terms of clearance. The appended memo provides background on the EDFacts
data collection, describes the retrospective review process used for EDFacts, and lists the changes
made to the collection as a result of the review. When the TOC were issued in February 2013, EDFacts
was managed by the Performance Information Management Service (PIMS) in the Office of Planning,
Evaluation, and Policy Development (OPEPD). Later that year, the National Center for Education
Statistics (NCES) created the Administrative Data Division, and PIMS—including all EDFacts
functions—moved out of OPEPD and into the Administrative Data Division of NCES. This submission
amends the original record (OMB# 1875-0240) and is also copied in the current request for clearance
for EDFacts 2017-2019 (OMB# 1850-NEW v.1).
