SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On August

the Federal Register a notice of open 

meetings of the RACs (88 FR 56608). 

The notice established the agenda, dates

and times for Meeting 2 for each RAC 

and provides information about the 

meetings to members of the public who 

may be interested in attending the 

meetings or providing written 

comments related to the work of the 

RACs. Notice of these meetings is 

required under the Federal Advisory 

Committee Act. 

Statutory Authority: The RACs are 

authorized by the Educational Technical 

Assistance Act of 2002 (ETAA) (Pub. L. 

107–279; 20 U.S.C. 9605). Information 

on the RACs can be found at https://

oese.ed.gov/offices/office-of-formulagrants/program-and-grantee-supportservices/comprehensive-centersprogram/regional-advisory-committees/. 

The RACs advise the Secretary of 

Education (Secretary) regarding the 

educational needs of their regions, as 

described in section 174(b) of the 

Education Sciences Reform Act of 2002, 

in order to assist in making decisions 

regarding the regional educational 

priorities. 

The RACs’ responsibilities include 

assessing the educational needs within 

their regions (Assessment). In 

conducting the Assessment, RACs seek 

input from chief executive officers of 

States, chief State school officers, 

educators, and parents. The RACs 

conduct open hearings to solicit the 

views and needs of schools (including 

public charter schools), teachers, 

administrators, members of the regional 

educational laboratory governing board, 

parents, local educational agencies, 

librarians, businesses, State educational 

agencies, and other customers, such as 

adult education programs, within the 

region regarding the need for the 

activities described in 20 U.S.C. 9564 

and 9602, and how those needs would 

be most effectively addressed. RACs 

submit the Assessment to the Secretary 

and to the Director of the Institute of 

Education Sciences, at such time, in 

such a manner, and containing such 

information as the Secretary may 

require. 

Purpose of Open Meetings: The open 

meetings are designed to— 

(1) Provide members of the 10 RACs 

an opportunity to participate in two 

open virtual meetings to assess the 

educational needs within the region 

served and to deliberate on the findings 

to prepare their region’s Assessment. 

(2) Provide members of the RACs the 

opportunity to review and discuss the 

reports that they will submit to the 

Secretary in October 2023. 

(3) Provide an opportunity for the 

public to observe and listen to RAC 

discussions on the top challenges in 

each region for improving student 

academic achievement and educational 

outcomes. 

(4) Provide an opportunity for the 

public to observe and listen to RAC 

discussions on recommendations on the 

educational needs of each region and 

how those needs may be addressed 

through technical assistance activities 

provided by comprehensive centers 

described in section 203 of the 

Educational Technical Assistance Act 

(ETAA) that would help States, districts, 

and schools successfully address the 

critical educational challenges 

identified by each of the RACs. 

(5) Provide an opportunity for the 

public to observe and listen to 

discussions and recommendations from 

each of the RACs on the priorities for 

federally funded technical assistance in 

their region.
