the Department assess the impact of its

It also helps the public understand the 

Department’s information collection 

requirements and provide the requested 

data in the desired format. The 

Department is soliciting comments on 

the proposed information collection 

request (ICR) that is described below. 

The Department is especially interested 

in public comment addressing the 

following issues: (1) is this collection 

necessary to the proper functions of the 

Department; (2) will this information be 

processed and used in a timely manner; 

(3) is the estimate of burden accurate; 

(4) how might the Department enhance 

the quality, utility, and clarity of the 

information to be collected; and (5) how 

might the Department minimize the 

burden of this collection on the 

respondents, including through the use 

of information technology. Please note 

that written comments received in 

response to this notice will be 

considered public records. 

Title of Collection: Charter Online 

Management and Performance System 

(COMPS) Developer Grant Profiles. 

OMB Control Number: 1810–NEW. 

Type of Review: A new ICR. 

Respondents/Affected Public: State, 

Local, and Tribal Governments. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Responses: 40. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Burden Hours: 320. 

Abstract: This request is for a new 

OMB approval to collect the Grant 

Profile data from Charter School 

Programs (CSP) Developer grantees. 

The Charter School Programs (CSP) 

was originally authorized under Title V, 

Part B, Subpart 1, Sections 5201 through 

5211 of the Elementary and Secondary 

Education Act (ESEA) of 1965, as 

amended by the No Child Left Behind 

(NCLB) Act of 2001. For fiscal year 2017 

and thereafter, ESEA has been amended 

by the Every Student Succeeds Act 

(ESSA), (20USC 7221–7221i), which 

reserves funds to improve education by 

supporting innovation in public 

education and to: (2) provide financial 

assistance for the planning, program 

design, and initial implementation of 

charter schools; (3) increase the number 

of high-quality charter schools available 

to students across the United States; (4) 

evaluate the impact of charter schools 

on student achievement, families, and 

communities, and share best practices 

between charter schools and other 

public schools; (5) encourage States to 

provide support to charter schools for 

facilities financing in an amount more 

nearly commensurate to the amount 

States typically provide for traditional 

public schools; (6) expand opportunities 

for children with disabilities, English 

learners, and other traditionally 

underserved students to attend charter 

schools and meet the challenging State 

academic standards; (7) support efforts 

to strengthen the charter school 

authorizing process to improve 

performance management, including 

transparency, oversight and monitoring 

(including financial audits), and 

evaluation of such schools; and (8) 

support quality, accountability, and 

transparency in the operational 

performance of all authorized public 

chartering agencies, including State 

educational agencies, local educational 

agencies, and other authorizing entities. 

The U.S. Department of Education 

(ED) is requesting authorization to 

collect data from CSP grantees within 

the Developer program through a new 

online platform. In 2022, ED began 

development of a new data collection 

system, the Charter Online Management 

and Performance System (COMPS), 

designed specifically to reduce the 

burden of reporting for users and 

increase validity of the overall data. 

This new collection consists of 

questions responsive to the actions 

established in the program’s final rule 

published in the Federal Register on 

July 6, 2022, as well as the Developer 

program Notice Inviting Applications 

(NIA). This collection request is a 

consolidation of all previously 

established program data collection 

efforts and provides a more 

comprehensive representation of grantee 

performance.
