Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 227 / Monday, November 27, 2006 / Notices Frequency: On Occasion, Annually. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Summary of Information Collection The High School Initiative will be evaluated to determine if quality educational programs are provided to all DoDEA high school students regardless of where the high school is located. The study entails the development of data collection methods and procedures, as well as the analysis of data to document the use of resources and the impact on student achievement in grades 9–12. The study will use a telephonic interview technique to determine the success of the initiative in helping students prepare for educational experiences after leaving Department of Defense (DoD) schools either through graduation, permanent change of station of the sponsor, or for any other reason. Four telephone surveys have been developed: one for all DoDEA sponsors and one for students who leave DoDEA for any reason other than graduation; one for DoDEA sponsors of graduates and students who graduate. These four telephone surveys include questions on transition, curriculum, courses, activities, counselors, teachers, administrators, and summary issues. Respondents will respond 3 to 5 months after leaving a DoDEA high school for any reason and then again one year later. Dated: November 17, 2006. Patricia L.
