The U.S. Department of Education (Department) requests OMB clearance for data collection activities associated with the Study of Title I Schoolwide and Targeted Assistance Programs. The purpose of this study is to provide a detailed analysis of the types of strategies and activities implemented in Title I schoolwide program( SWP) and targeted assistance program (TAP) schools, how different confgurations of resources are used to support these strategies and how local officials make decisions about the use of these varied resources.
