Abstract: The Conversion Magnet Schools Evaluation is being
conducted to determine if efforts to turn around low-performing schools
through converting to a Magnet Schools Assistance Program supported
magnet school are associated with improved student achievement and the
reduction in minority group isolation. The Institute of Education
Sciences, in collaboration with the Office of Innovation and
Improvement, initiated the study due to the popularity and persistence
of magnet programs and the inconclusive research on the relationship of
these programs to important student outcomes. The study will use quasi-
experimental designs to explore the relationship between magnet
programs and student achievement both for ``resident'' students who
attend magnet schools as their neighborhood schools and, if possible,
for non-resident students. Data collection includes student records
data, principal surveys, and project director interviews. The U.S.
Department of Education has commissioned American Institutes for
Research to conduct this study.
An OMB clearance request that (1) described the study design and
full data collection activities and (2) requested approval for the
burden associated with the first three years of data collection was
approved in 2007 (OMB Number 1850-0832 approval 7/13/07; expiration 7/
31/10). In 2010, we requested clearance for the burden associated with
the fourth and fifth year of data collection necessary for the rigorous
comparative interrupted time series design including student records
data collection for the 2009-2010 school year (OMB Number 1850-0832
approval 6/14/10; expiration 6/30/13). We are now requesting clearance
for the burden associated with one additional round of student records
data collection (student records data from the 2010-2011 school year)
from participating districts due to the later than expected
implementation of the magnet programs in the 2007 grantee cohort.
