Comment Request

Title: Head Start Family and Child

Experiences Survey (FACES).

OMB No.: OMB No. 0970–0151.

Description: The Administration on

Children, Youth and Families (ACYF),

Administration for Children and

Families (ACF) of the Department of

Health and Human Services (DHHS) is

requesting Office of Management and

Budget (OMB) clearance for interview

instruments to be used in the Head Start

Family and Child Experiences Survey

(FACES). This study is being conducted

under contract with Westat, Inc. (with

Ellsworth Associates as their

subcontractor (#105–96–1912)) to

collect information on Head Start

performance measures. This revision is

intended to follow-on to the current

design in order to follow the sample

through the end of their first grade year

of school.

FACES currently involves five phases

of data collection. The first phase was

a Spring 1997 Field test in which

approximately 2400 parents and

children were studied in a nationally

stratified random sample of 40 Head

Start programs. The second and third

phases occurred in Fall 1997 (Wave 1)

and Spring 1998 (Wave 2) when data

were collected on a sample of 3200

children and families in the same 40

programs. Spring 1998 data collection

included assessments of both Head Start

children completing the program and

former Head Start children completing

kindergarten (kindergarten field test) as

well as interviews with their parents

and ratings by their kindergarten

teachers. In the fourth and fifth phases,

follow-up continued for a second

program year, plus a kindergarten

follow-up. The current plan is to extend

data collection in spring of the firstgrade year for both cohorts of children,

those completing kindergarten in spring

1999, and those completing

kindergarten in spring 2000.

This schedule of data collection is

necessitated by the mandates of the

Government Performance and Results

Act (GPRA) of 1993 (Pub. L. 103–62),

which requires that the Head Start

Bureau move expeditiously toward

development and testing of Head Start

Performance Measures, and by the 1994

reauthorization of Head Start (Head

Start Act, as amended, May 18, 1994,

Section 649 (d)), which requires

assessment of Head Start’s quality and

effectiveness. These mandates were

reinforced by the Head Start Act

Reauthorization of October, 1998, which

called for planning for a study of Head

Start children to continue follow-up

through first grade.

Respondents: Federal Government,

Individuals or Households, and Not-forprofit institutions.
