necessary processes and systems to 

comply with the reporting requirements 

in 2 CFR part 170 should you receive 

funding under the competition. This 

does not apply if you have an exception 

under 2 CFR 170.110(b). 

(b) At the end of your project period, 

you must submit a final performance 

report, including financial information, 

as directed by the Secretary. If you 

receive a multi-year award, you must 

submit an annual performance report 

that provides the most current 

performance and financial expenditure 

information as directed by the Secretary 

under 34 CFR 75.118. The Secretary 

may also require more frequent 

performance reports under 34 CFR 

75.720(c). Please see the application 

package for details of annual and final 

reporting requirements. For specific 

requirements on reporting, please go to 

www.ed.gov/fund/grant/apply/

appforms/appforms.html. 

4. Performance Measures: The 

Secretary has established the following 

key performance measures for assessing 

the effectiveness of the PBI Program: 

(a) The percentage of change in the 

number of full-time, degree-granting 

undergraduate students enrolled at PBIs. 

(b) The percentage of first-time, fulltime, degree-seeking undergraduate 

students at four-year PBIs who were in 

their first year of postsecondary 

enrollment in the previous year and are 

enrolled in the current year at the same 

four-year PBI. 

(c) The percentage of first-time, fulltime, degree-seeking undergraduate 

students at two-year PBIs who were in 

their first year of postsecondary 

enrollment in the previous year and are 

enrolled in the current year at the same 

two-year PBI. 

(d) The percentage of first-time, fulltime, degree-seeking undergraduate 

students enrolled at four-year PBIs who 

graduate within six years of enrollment. 

(e) The percentage of first-time, fulltime, degree-seeking undergraduate 

students enrolled at two-year PBIs who 

graduate within three years of 

enrollment. 

5. Continuation Awards: In making a 

continuation award under 34 CFR 

75.253, the Secretary considers, among 

other things: whether a grantee has 

made substantial progress in achieving 

the goals and objectives of the project; 

whether the grantee has expended funds 

in a manner that is consistent with its 

approved application and budget; and, 

if the Secretary has established 

performance measurement 

requirements, the performance targets in 

the grantee’s approved application. In 

making a continuation award, the 

Secretary also considers whether the 

grantee is operating in compliance with 

the assurances in its approved 

application, including those applicable 

to Federal civil rights laws that prohibit 

discrimination in programs or activities 

receiving Federal financial assistance 

from the Department (34 CFR 100.4, 

104.5, 106.4, 108.8, and 110.23).

Title of Collection: Race to the Top 

Early Learning Challenge: Descriptive 

Study of Tiered Quality Ratings and 

Improvement Systems in Nine Round 1 

States. 

OMB Control Number: 1850—NEW. 

Type of Review: A new information 

collection. 

Respondents/Affected Public: State, 

Local and Tribal Governments. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Responses: 24. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Burden Hours: 87. 

Abstract: The Study of Race to the 

Top–Early Learning Challenge Tiered 

Quality Rating and Improvement 

Systems (RTT–ELC TQRIS) will collect 

data from two to three RTT–ELC states 

on TQRIS ratings, component-level 

ratings, indicator-level ratings, and 

kindergarten entry assessments. In the 

event that the kindergarten entry 

assessment data are not available from 

state databases, the study will reach out 

to selected districts in the RTT–ELC 

states to collect such data. If this step 

proves necessary, the study will reach 

out to up to 42 districts in order to 

ultimately recruit 14 districts from 

which to collect assessment data. The 

study will use these data to conduct 

analyses of the relationship between 

TQRIS ratings and child outcome 

measures to inform ongoing 

development and improvement of 

TQRIS systems at the state level.
