Institute of Education Sciences

Type of Review: Extension. Title of Collection: Conversion Magnet Schools Evaluation.

OMB Control Number: 1850–0832. Agency Form Number(s): N/A. Frequency of Responses: On Occasion.

Affected Public: Not-for-profit institutions.

Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 20.

Total Estimated Annual Burden Hours: 280.

Abstract: The Conversion Magnet Schools Evaluation is being conducted to determine if efforts to turn around low-performing schools through converting to a Magnet Schools Assistance Program supported magnet school are associated with improved student achievement and the reduction in minority group isolation. The Institute of Education Sciences, in collaboration with the Office of Innovation and Improvement, initiated the study due to the popularity and persistence of magnet programs and the inconclusive research on the relationship of these programs to important student outcomes. The study will use quasi-experimental designs to explore the relationship between magnet programs and student achievement both for ‘‘resident’’ students who attend magnet schools as their neighborhood schools and, if possible, for non-resident students. Data collection includes student records data, principal surveys, and project director interviews. The U.S. Department of Education has commissioned American Institutes for Research to conduct this study.

An OMB clearance request that (1) described the study design and full data collection activities and (2) requested approval for the burden associated with the first three years of data collection was approved in 2007 (OMB Number 1850–0832 approval 7/13/07; expiration 7/31/10). In 2010, we requested clearance for the burden associated with the fourth and fifth year of data collection necessary for the rigorous comparative interrupted time series design including student records data collection for the 2009–2010 school year (OMB Number 1850–0832 approval 6/ 14/10; expiration 6/30/13). We are now requesting clearance for the burden associated with one additional round of student records data collection (student records data from the 2010–2011 school year) from participating districts due to the later than expected implementation of the magnet programs in the 2007 grantee cohort.
