Title of Collection: Formula Grant 

EASIE Annual Performance Report. 

OMB Control Number: 1810–0726. 

Type of Review: A revision of an 

existing information collection. 

Respondents/Affected Public: State, 

Local, and Tribal Governments. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Responses: 1,300. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Burden Hours: 14,300. 

Abstract: The purpose of Indian 

Education Formula Grant to Local 

Agencies, as authorized under section 

6116 of the Elementary and Secondary 

Education Act of 1965 (ESEA), as 

amended by the Every Student Succeeds 

Act (ESSA) is to assist grantees to 

provide Indian students with the 

opportunity to meet the same 

challenging state standards as all other 

students and meet the unique 

educational and culturally related 

academic needs of American Indian and 

Alaska Native students. The Indian 

Education Formula Grant (CFDA 

84.060A), is neither competitive nor 

discretionary and requires the annual 

submission of the application from 

either a local education agency, tribe, 

Indian organization or Indian 

community based organization. The 

amount of the award for each applicant 

is determined by a formula based on the 

reported number of American Indian/ 

Alaska Native students identified in the 

application, the state per pupil 

expenditure, and the total appropriation 

available. The Office of Indian 

Education (OIE) of The Department of 

Education (ED) collects annual 

performance data within the same 

system that collects the annual 

application. The application and the 

annual performance report are both be 

housed in the Education Data Exchange 

Network (EDEN) Submission System. 

The 524B Annual Performance Report 

(APR) was designed for discretionary 

grants, however the title VI program is 

a formula grant program. The EASIE 

APR goes beyond the generic 524B APR 

and facilitates the collection of more 

specific and comprehensive data due to 

grantees entering project specific data 

into an online database.
