data in the desired format. ED is soliciting comments on the proposed information collection request (ICR) that is described below. The Department of Education 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

Title of Collection: Case Studies of the Implementation of Kindergarten Entry

Assessments.

OMB Control Number: 1875–NEW. Type of Review: A new information
collection.

Respondents/Affected Public: State, Local, or Tribal Governments.

Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 240.

Total Estimated Number of Annual
Burden Hours: 230.

Abstract: In the past decade, interest has increased in implementing Kindergarten Entry Assessments (KEAs)
to better understand individual children’s strengths and needs, plan instruction, pinpoint areas for program improvement and staff development,
and evaluate the effectiveness of prekindergarten (PreK) programs to inform program planning and improvement. The purpose of the Kindergarten Entry Assessments implementation case studies is to document the processes, accomplishments, challenges, and solutions of four states implementing KEAs, and to share what state, district, and school personnel have learned with federal and state policymakers, and practitioners in the field. These findings will support the technical assistance efforts of the U.S. Department of Education (the Department) regarding the implementation of KEAs across the nation. This information collection
consists of interview and observation protocols for case studies of the implementation of Kindergarten Entry
Assessments in 24 schools within 12
districts within 4 states.
