Abstract: The Schools and Staffing
Survey (SASS) is an in-depth, nationally
representative survey of first through
twelfth grade public and private school
teachers, principals, schools, library
media centers, and school districts. For
public school districts, principals,
schools, teachers and school libraries,
the survey estimates are staterepresentative. For private school
principals, schools, and teachers, the
survey estimates are representative of
private school types. There are two
additional components within SASS’s
4-year data collection cycle: The
Teacher Follow-up Survey (TFS) and
the Principal Follow-up Survey (PFS),
which are conducted a year after the
SASS main collection. SASS
respondents include public and private
school principals, teachers, and school
and school district staff. Topics covered
include characteristics of teachers,
principals, schools, school libraries,
teacher training opportunities,
retention, retirement, hiring, and
shortages. This submission for SASS
2011/12 requests OMB approval for
preliminary field activities to take place
prior to data collection in the fall of
2011, including (a) Submitting SASS
research applications to special districts
that require prior research approval
before their schools and a coordinator
can be recruited for the study; (b)
conducting a calling operation to verify
whether a subset of districts are oneschool districts and will require
receiving a combined school- and
district-level questionnaire; (c)
contacting all of the remaining districts,
asking whether they are willing to
provide a Teacher Listing Form at a later
time and to request email addresses for
sampled school principals; and (d)
mailing of a pre-contact letter to sample
schools to verify the mailing address of
the school and to notify the school
about the upcoming data collection.
