revised November 2020
NOTE: The full draft surveys were presented in the OMB package for Kindergarten and FirstGrade Field Test Data Collection, National Sampling, and National Recruitment (OMB#
1850-0750 v.22). In the interest of maximizing available time in the field test and minimizing
respondent burden, only a subset of the items from any given instrument may be
administered to any one respondent, though all of the items will be tested across multiple
respondents. For the Teacher-Level Teacher Surveys, field test study skips have been added
for spring kindergarten and spring first grade. Final changes to other surveys are currently
being implemented and will be included in the upcoming March 2021 change request.
