cotton, wool, and man-made socks
(Category 332/432 and 632 Part).
The Committee determined that this

the request and solicited public

Abstract: The original OMB package
requested clearance for the baseline

instruments to be used in the Evaluation

attitudes and behaviors. The study has
also been expanded to include an
additional cohort of students, and thus
will examine the impacts of these
literacy interventions on student
outcomes for two cohorts of students
instead of one.
