Burden Hours: 212. 

Abstract: Section 8546 of the 

Elementary and Secondary Education 

Act of 1965, as amended, (ESEA) 

requires that A State, State educational 

agency, or local educational agency in 

the case of a local educational agency 

that receives Federal funds under this 

Act shall have laws, regulations, or 

policies that prohibit any individual 

who is a school employee, contractor, or 

agent, or any State educational agency 

or local educational agency, from 

assisting a school employee, contractor, 

or agent in obtaining a new job, apart 

from the routine transmission of 

administrative and personnel files, if the 

individual or agency knows, or has 

probable cause to believe, that such 

school employee, contractor, or agent 

engaged in sexual misconduct regarding 

a minor or student in violation of the 

law. In order to understand state and 

local compliance with section 8546 and 

provide technical assistance to support 

state and local efforts to keep students 

safe from sexual predators in K12 school 

settings, staff in the Office of Elementary 

and Secondary Education (OESE) at the 

U.S. Department of Education (the 

Department) will implement this 

monitoring protocol. 

Congress included section 8546 as 

part of the ESEA reauthorized by the 

Every Student Succeeds Act and 

directed the Department to provide 

publicly available information on the 

status of each states compliance with 

this provision in the fiscal year 2024 

Federal budget. Specifically, Congress 

directed the Department to brief the 

Committees on key actions completed 

and plans to ensure state and local 

compliance with the requirements of 

section 8546 of the ESEA not later than 

90 days after enactment of this fiscal 

year 2024 budget. Such briefing shall 

include a discussion of actions taken on 

recommendations from the Departmentfunded ‘‘Study of State Policies to 

Prohibit Aiding and Abetting Sexual 

Misconduct in Schools, and other 

technical assistance and support, 

enforcement and accountability actions, 

implementation challenges, and the 

metrics the agency is using to measure 

improved State and local compliance 

with this section of the law. Not later 

than 240 days after enactment, the 

Department is directed to publicly post 

a status report on State and local 

compliance and its plans to ensure State 

and local compliance with such section. 

This will be a new collection and 

rulemaking will not be involved.
