Abstract: The collection, use, and 

reporting of education data is an integral 

component of the mission of the U.S. 

Department of Education (Department). 

The Department has collected civil 

rights data about the nation’s public 

schools via the Civil Rights Data 

Collection (CRDC) since 1968. As with 

previous CRDC collections, the purpose 

of the 2025–26 and 2027–28 CRDCs is 

to obtain vital data related to the civil 

rights laws’ requirement that public 

local educational agencies (LEA) and 

elementary and secondary schools 

provide equal educational opportunity. 

The Department has analyzed the uses 

of many data elements collected in the 

2020–21 CRDC and sought advice from 

experts across the Department to refine, 

improve, and where appropriate, add or 

remove data elements from the 

collection. CRDC data definitions and 

metrics are consistent with other 

mandatory collections across the 

Department wherever possible. The 

Department seeks the Office of 

Management and Budget’s approval 

under the Paperwork Reduction Act to 

collect from LEAs the elementary and 

secondary education data described in 

the sections of Attachment A. The 

Department requests that LEAs and 

other stakeholders review and comment 

on the proposed changes (detailed in 

Supporting Statement A, Attachments 

A–1, A–2, A–3, and A–4, and 

Attachment B).

BILLING CODE 4000–01–P 

DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION 

Application of the Revised Version of 

the Uniform Guidance to Department 

Grants 

AGENCY: Office of Planning, Evaluation 

and Policy Development, Department of 

Education. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: The Secretary announces 

updates to awardees’ Grant Award 

Notices (GANs) to apply the 2024 

revision of the Uniform Administrative 

Requirements, Cost Principles, And 

Audit Requirements for Federal Awards 

the Uniform Guidance to all Department 

grants that are subject to the Uniform 

Guidance. 

DATES: This change is effective January 

16, 2025. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On April 

22, 2024, the Office of Management and 

Budget (OMB) published a final rule in 

the Federal Register that revised the 

Uniform Guidance (89 FR 30046). This 

final rule, effective as of October 1, 

2024, provided new flexibilities and due 

process protections to grantees, and also 

clarified several grant requirements. In 

order to ensure that the new flexibilities 

and due process protections for grantees 

set out in that revised 2024 guidance 

apply uniformly to Department grantees, 

we have updated the terms and 

conditions of Department grants to 

clarify that the revised Uniform 

Guidance (89 FR 30136, April 22, 2024) 

is the version that applies to all 

Department grants that are subject to the 

Uniform Guidance. 

Specifically, the Department is adding 

the following condition to Box 10 of its 

Grant Award Notifications (GANs): 

By the drawdown of funds under this 

GAN, the grantee accepts that this award is 

subject to the requirements of the Uniform 

Administrative Requirements, Cost 

Principles and Audit Requirements for 

Federal Awards; Title 2 CFR part 200 as 

revised at 89 FR 30136–30208 (April 22, 

2024). 

While grantees will not automatically 

receive a new printed GAN, the updated 

Box 10 and this notice supersede any 

previous GAN or notice that applied an 

earlier version of the Uniform Guidance. 

Grantees are not required to take any 

action other than continuing to draw 

down funds to take advantage of this 

change but are encouraged to maintain 

a copy of this notice within their grant 

files as documentation for grant 

management and auditing purposes.
