SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Department 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;

Title of Collection: Expanding 

Opportunity through Quality Charter 

Schools Program: Technical Assistance 

to Support Monitoring, Evaluation, Data 

Collection, and Dissemination of Best 

Practices. 

OMB Control Number: 1810–NEW. 

Type of Review: New ICR. 

Respondents/Affected Public: State, 

Local, and Tribal Governments. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Responses: 110. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Burden Hours: 172. 

Abstract: This request is for a new 

OMB approval to collect data necessary 

to support the following: Charter School 

Programs (CSP) Data Collection, Risk 

Assessment, and Monitoring. This 

collection will replace previously 

approved 1855–0016 collection in order 

to obtain a new OMB number that is 

associated with the sub-agency this 

collection has moved to following a 

reorganization. The collection of 

information is still necessary in order to 

perform data collection, data analysis, 

risk assessment, and grantee monitoring 

for the CSP. However, the number of 

respondents is expected to decrease 

over the life of this collection, as new 

grantees (from FY 2022 onward) use the 

Charter Online Management and 

Performance System (COMPS) for their 

reporting (OMB Control Numbers 1810– 

0781 through 1810–0787). This 

collection will remain in place for the 

older grantees that still have active CSP 

grants. 

This data collection is coordinated 

with the EDFacts Initiative (EDFacts) to 

reduce respondent burden and fully 

utilize data submitted by States and 

available to the U.S. Department of 

Education (ED) through the EDFacts 

database. Specifically, under the current 

data collection, ED collects CSP grant 

award information from grantees (State 

agencies, charter management 

organizations, and some schools) to 

create a new database of current CSPfunded charter schools and award 

amounts. Once complete, ED merges 

performance information extracted from 

the EDFacts database with the database 

of CSP-funded charter schools. 

Together, these data allow ED to 

monitor CSP grant performance and 

analyze data related to accountability 

for academic performance, financial 

integrity, and program effectiveness.

Abstract: This information collection

collect data on the education and

Abstract: This information collection 

is used by the Department to request 

State Plans and annual revisions under

collection of potentially duplicative 

information, give States more time to 

report education and employment 

outcomes to improve the accuracy and 

completeness of these data, and to 

improve the consistency of performance 

data reported by States. The revision 

also would collect data on State policies 

on serving students in the middle 

grades, how States define certain terms 

that are not defined in law, and how 

States identify industry-recognized 

credentials.
