Title I, Part A (Title I) of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 (ESEA), as amended by the Every Student Succeeds Act of 2015 (ESSA), and its regulations contain several provisions that require State educational agencies (SEAs), local educational agencies (LEAs), and schools to collect and disseminate information. The Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) covers these activities. The previous authorization of the ESEA contained information collection requirements which are currently approved by OMB under control number 1810-0581.
The Department of Education proposes to amend the regulations implementing Title I of the ESEA, as amended by the ESSA. The Notice of Proposed Rulemaking includes changes to 34 CFR sections 200.30 through 200.37, which would increase burden, as they would require States and LEAs to revise the current report cards to include additional elements. However, the revised information collection would also reduce some of the existing burden, due to the elimination of currently approved reporting requirements and adjustments in the estimated time required to report on other required elements. Overall, the burden would reduce by 3,785,445 hours.
