Title of Collection: Charter Online 

Management and Performance System 

(COMPS) SE Grant Profile. 

OMB Control Number: 1810–NEW. 

Type of Review: 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) State Entity (SE) 

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), (20 U.S.C. 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 SE 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 SE 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.
