The National Public Education Financial Survey (NPEFS) is an annual collection of state-level finance data that has been included in the
NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) since FY 1982 (school year 1981-82). NPEFS provides function expenditures by salaries, benefits,
purchased services, and supplies, and includes federal, state, and local revenues by source. The NPEFS collection includes data on all staterun schools from the 50 states, the District of Columbia, American Samoa, the Northern Mariana Islands, Guam, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin
Islands. NPEFS data are used for a wide variety of purposes, including to calculate federal program allocations such as states’ “average perpupil expenditure” (SPPE) for elementary and secondary education, certain formula grant programs (e.g. Title I, Part A of the Elementary and
Secondary Education Act of 1965 (ESEA) as amended, Impact Aid, and Indian Education programs). Furthermore, in addition to using the
SPPE data as general information on the financing of elementary and secondary education, the U.S. Department of Education Secretary uses
these data directly in calculating allocations for certain formula grant programs, including, but not limited to, title I, part A, of the ESEA, Impact
Aid, and Indian Education programs. Other programs, such as the Education for Homeless Children and Youth program under title VII of the
McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act, and the Student Support and Academic Enrichment Grants under title IV, part A of the ESEA
make use of SPPE data indirectly because their formulas are based, in whole or in part, on State title I, part A, allocations.
NCES’s request to conduct the annual collection of state-level finance data for FY 2022-2024 was approved by the Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) in November 2022 (OMB# 1850-0067 v.23). Per the approved Supporting Statement Part A, this submission provides a
revised text of the Federal Register Notice to be published in Winter 2023 for the FY 2023 NPEFS collection and revisions to prior fiscal year
reports. Within the U.S. Department of Education, this notice has been cleared by all relevant U.S. Department of Education offices (i.e., OS,
OGC-DRS, OGC-PA, OUS, OPEPD, Budget, OM, ICCD, OCIO, OCR, and Exec Sec).TThis submission updates Appendix A of the originally
cleared package (OMB# 1850-0067 v.23) by adding (a) a 2023 FRN to be published upon clearance of this submission, and (b) a new section
Appendix A-3, containing all communication materials for the 2023 data collection. The changes described in this submission do not affect the
last approved estimated response burden or the total cost to the federal government for this study.
