Title of Collection: Office of State 

Support Progress Check Quarterly 

Protocol. 

OMB Control Number: 1810–NEW. 

Type of Review: A new information 

collection. 

Respondents/Affected Public: State, 

Local, and Tribal Governments. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Responses: 53. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Burden Hours: 636. 

Abstract: The Office of State Support 

(OSS) administers Title I, Sections 

1001–1004 (School Improvement); Title 

I, Part A (Improving Basic Programs 

Operated by Local Educational 

Agencies); Title I, Part B (Enhanced 

Assessments Grants (EAG), and Grants 

for State Assessments and Related 

Activities); Title II, Part A (Supporting 

Effective Instruction); Title III, Part A 

(English Language Acquisition, 

Language Enhancement, and Academic 

Achievement); and School Improvement 

Grants (SIG). Quarterly progress checks, 

phone or in-person conversations every 

three months of a fiscal year with State 

directors and coordinators, help ensure 

that State Educational Agencies (SEAs) 

are making progress toward increasing 

student achievement and improving the 

quality of instruction for all students 

through regular conversations about the 

quality of SEA implementation of OSS 

administered programs. The information 

shared with the OSS helps inform the 

selection and delivery of technical 

assistance to SEAs and aligns structures, 

processes, and routines so the OSS can 

regularly monitor the connection 

between grant administration and 

intended outcomes. Progress checks also 

allow the OSS to proactively engage 

with SEAs to identify any issues ahead 

of formal monitoring visits, decreasing 

the need for enforcement actions and 

minimizing burden for SEAs. ED will 

collect this data from the 53 grantees 

that receive the grants listed above to 

inform its review of grantee 

implementation, outcomes, oversight, 

and accountability. In order to allow for 

a comprehensive program review of 

OSS grantees, we are requesting a threeyear clearance with this form.
