Title of Collection: Charter School 

Facilities National Questionnaire. 

OMB Control Number: 1855–0024. 

Type of Review: An extension of an 

existing information collection. 

Respondents/Affected Public: State, 

Local, and Tribal Governments. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Responses: 369. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Burden Hours: 1,107. 

Abstract: According to Part B section 

5201 of the Elementary and Secondary 

Education Act, one of the established 

purposes of the Charter Schools 

Program at the U.S. Department of 

Education (ED) is to encourage ‘‘States 

to provide support to charter schools for 

facilities financing in an amount more 

nearly commensurate to the amount the 

States have typically provided for 

traditional public schools’’. To help 

achieve this purpose, the Charter School 

Program needs reliable data to 

understand the current facilities 

landscape for charter schools. There 

have been discussions on the struggles 

of charter schools for equitable and 

adequate access to facilities and 

facilities financing, yet there were no 

official studies, reports, or analyses 

explicitly discussing the facility 

landscape of charter schools and the 

similarities and differences between 

charter school and traditional public 

school facilities. The Charter Schools 

Program, through the National Charter 

School Resource Center, administers a 

questionnaire conducted by the 

Colorado League of Charter Schools to 

gather data on charter schools facilities. 

This data helps to assess the true 

facilities challenges of the charter 

schools and what actions ED and the 

SEAs must take to better financially 

support the facilities needs of quality 

charter schools. ED would like to 

continue to use and administer this 

survey in additional states and compile 

the data from all states into a facilities 


tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 179 / Tuesday, September 16, 2014 / Notices 55439 

database. ED plans to conduct this 

survey in approximately three to four 

states per year, depending on the size of 

the state and local resources of the CSO 

to support the survey. This database 

will provide comprehensive information 

about the facilities for charter schools 

and the issues that charter school face 

in trying to obtain adequate facilities. 

The League will produce a report and an 

analysis summarizing the findings per 

state.
