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), contains several provisions that require State education 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.
Congress approved a joint resolution on March 9, 2017 disapproving the U.S. Department of Educationâs (Departmentâs) regulations related to State plans, statewide accountability systems, and data reporting. The burden changes reflected in this revision renewal data collection are a result of this joint resolution and reflect only the requirements of the statute. The requirement to produce a State and LEA report card remains unchanged under this revision renewal and most of the work to produce the report cards is the same. There are some requirements that were in the regulations that are not required due to the joint resolution. As a result, the burden estimate is slightly lower under this revision renewal.
SEAs, LEAs, and schools collect and disseminate the information to carry out the reporting requirements of Title I of the ESEA. The information is used to facilitate compliance with statutory requirements and to provide information to school communities (including parents), LEAs, SEAs and the Department regarding activities required under Title I of the ESEA.
Pursuant to the Congressional Review Act (CRA) (5 U.S.C. §§ 801- 808), Congress approved a joint resolution on March 9, 2017 disapproving the U.S. Department of Educationâs (Departmentâs) regulations related to State plans, statewide accountability systems, and data reporting. The burden changes reflected in this data collection are a result of this joint resolution and reflect only the requirements of the statute.
