(SSOCS:2022). 

OMB Control Number: 1850–0761. 

Type of Review: Revision of a

Abstract: The School Survey on Crime 

and Safety (SSOCS) is a nationally 

representative survey of elementary and 

secondary school principals that serves 

as the primary source of school-level 

data on crime and safety in public 

schools, and was conducted in 2000, 

2004, 2006, 2008, 2010, 2016, 2018, and 

2020 (OMB #1850–0761). Four years 

separated the first two collections of 

SSOCS to allow for sufficient time to 

study the results of the first survey and 

to allow for necessary redesign work; 

the next three collections were 

conducted at 2-year intervals. Due to a 

reorganization of the sponsoring agency 

(the Office of Safe and Drug-Free 

Schools) and funding issues, the 2012 

administration of SSOCS, although 

approved by OMB, was not fielded. 

With new funding available through the 

National Institute of Justice (NIJ), 

SSOCS was conducted again in the 

spring of the 2015–16 school year. With 

continued dedicated funding, SSOCS 

has resumed collection on a biennial 

basis, with collections during the spring 

of the 2017–18 and the 2019–20 school 

years, and the next planned collection 

during the spring of the 2021–22 school 

year. SSOCS is a survey of public 

schools covering the topic of school 

crime and violence and is designed to 

produce nationally representative data 

on public schools. Historically, it has 

been conducted by mail, with telephone 

and email follow-up; however, as an 

experiment, an internet version was 

fielded during the SSOCS:2018 

administration. For SSOCS:2020, the 

internet version was initially offered to 

all respondents, with the paper version 

sent via mail as a follow-up, and the 

same methodology will be used for 

SSOCS:2022. The respondent is the 

school principal, or a member of the 

school staff designated by the principal 

as the person ‘‘the most knowledgeable 

about school crime and policies to 

provide a safe environment.’’ 

The 2022 survey is being funded by 

the U.S. Department of Education’s 

Office of Safe and Supportive Schools 

(previously known as the Office of Safe 

and Healthy Students) and conducted
