Abstract: This request is for OMB
approval of a new data collection
necessary for the Charter School
Program (CSP). ED will coordinate this
new data collection with the Education
Data Exchange Network (EDEN) to
reduce respondent burden and fully
utilize available data. Specifically, ED
will collect CSP grant award
information from grantees (state
agencies and some schools) to create a
new database of current CSP-funded
charter schools and award amounts.
Once complete, ED will merge student
demographic and performance
information extracted from the EDEN
database onto the database of CSPfunded charter schools. Together, these
data will allow ED to monitor CSP grant
performance and analyze data related to
accountability for academic
performance, financial integrity, and
program effectiveness.

priority under the Upward Bound (UB)
Program. This priority will help focus
Federal resources on students most in
need of academic assistance and
increase the effectiveness of the UB
Program.
DATES: This priority is effective October
23, 2006.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: We
published a notice of proposed priority
(NPP) in the Federal Register on July 3,
2006 (71 FR 37926). We discussed our
proposals for this program in the NPP
on pages 37926–37928.
This notice of final priority contains
three changes from the NPP. We fully
explain these changes in the Analysis of
Comments and Changes section that
follows.
Analysis of Comments and Changes
In response to our invitation in the
NPP, 110 parties submitted comments.
An analysis of the comments and of any
changes in the priority follows. We
group major issues according to subject.
Generally, we do not address technical
and other minor changes and suggested
changes we are not authorized to make
under the applicable statutory authority.
Authority to Implement a Priority in the
UB Program
Comment: A number of commenters
expressed concern that the Department
had overstepped its legislative and
regulatory authority in proposing this
priority. They believe the Department
does not have the legal authority to
impose a priority not specified in statute
and that the proposed priority
substitutes an administrative priority for
a congressional priority, and
circumvents legislation and regulations
regarding selection of program
participants based on grade level and
need for academic support.
Discussion: The Secretary does not
agree with these commenters. The
Department’s authority to establish
priorities for the TRIO programs and
PO 00000
Frm 00032
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
55447
other discretionary grant programs is
well established. The Department’s
regulations clearly reflect this authority
in 34 CFR 74.11 and 75.105. Section
402C of the Higher Education Act of
1965, as amended (HEA), which
authorizes the UB program, does not
prohibit or limit the Secretary’s
authority to establish funding priorities
to achieve the UB program’s purposes.
In fact, the Secretary has previously
established priorities for the UB
Program without challenge or questions.
See the notice of proposed priority, 68
FR 37469 (June 24, 2003) and the notice
of final priority, 68 FR 50958 (August
22, 2003), and the notice of proposed
priority, 65 FR 35238 (June 1, 2000) and
the notice of final priority, 65 FR 45698
(July 24, 2000).
The priority proposed by the
Secretary is consistent with the
requirements for funding included in
section 402C(d)(3) and (4) of the HEA.
Those provisions stipulate that each UB
program participant must have a need
for academic support and must have
completed eight years of elementary
school education. Change: None.
Selection of First-Time UB Participants
From Otherwise Eligible Students Who
Have Completed the 8th Grade But Not
the 9th Grade in Secondary School
Comment: Numerous commenters
expressed concerns about the proposal
to limit the selection of new UB
participants to students who have
completed the 8th grade but not the 9th
grade in secondary school. These
commenters stated that the focus on
these students would not contribute to
the effectiveness of the UB Program
because of the lack of maturity of
younger students; higher drop-out rates
among younger students; the high
mobility rates of UB participants; and
increased costs for those projects that
currently recruit from high schools that
begin with the 10th grade. In addition,
some commenters argued that selecting
students in the 10th grade allows
students to participate in the UB
program for 36 months and those
students have similar success rates as
students selected during the 9th grade.
Discussion: A 2004 report of a study
conducted for the Department titled,
The Impacts of Regular Upward Bound:
Results from the Third Follow-Up Data
Collection (the Study) concluded that,
for students who participated in the UB
program for less than two years, an
additional year of participation in the
program could raise the postsecondary
enrollment rate by as much as nine
percentage points. Among UB program
participants who did not complete the
program, the Study found that UB
