This new form replaces the

less information than the current form

this new form is that even though most 

of the information is already gathered by 

the Standard Form 86, Questionnaire for 

National Security Positions, OMB 

Control Number 3206–0005, and is 

already in the system there are still 

several bits of information needed for

decisions on.

Type of Review: Revision. 

Title of Collection: Integrated 

Evaluation of American Recovery and 

Reinvestment Act (ARRA) Funding, 

Implementation and Outcomes. 

OMB Control Number: 1850–0877. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Responses: 5,551. 

Total Estimated Annual Burden 

Hours: 5,039. 

Abstract: On February 17, 2009, 

President Obama signed the American 

Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) 

into law (Pub. L. 111–50). ARRA 

supports investments in innovative 

strategies that are intended to lead to 

improved results for students, long-term 

gains in school and local education 

agency capacity for success, and 

increased productivity and 

effectiveness. 

This evaluation will focus on 

answering three sets of policy/research 

questions: 

• To what extent did ARRA funds go 

to the intended recipients? 

• Is ARRA associated with the 

implementation of the key reform 

strategies it promoted? 

• What implementation supports and 

challenges are associated with ARRA? 

The integrated evaluation will draw 

on existing data, including U.S. 

Department of Education (ED) data 

collections, ED ARRA program files, 

ARRA required reporting, and databases 

of achievement and other outcomes. The 

evaluation will also collect new 

information through surveys of (1) the 

50 states and the District of Columbia, 

(2) a nationally representative sample of 

school districts, and (3) a nationally 

representative sample of schools within 

the sampled school districts. Surveys 

were conducted in spring 2011 and are 

planned for spring 2012. 

A report will be prepared to describe 

the distribution of funding. A report and 

state tabulations will be prepared after 

each annual survey. The first report, 

based on the 2011 surveys, will focus on 

early ARRA implementation and 

strategies. The second report, based on 

the 2012 surveys, will expand upon 

strategies implemented under ARRA.
