Abstract: This is a request for approval to collect information from SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: PO 00000 Frm 00020 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 21541 TTT grantees that will be used to describe the extent to which local education agencies that received TTT grant funds have met the goals relating to teacher recruitment and retention described in their application. TTT grantees are funded for a period of five years. Currently, grantees are required by statute to submit an interim project evaluation to the U.S. Department of Education (ED) at the end of the third project year and a final project evaluation at the project’s end. In turn, the TTT program is required to prepare and submit to the Secretary and to Congress interim and final program evaluations containing the results of these grantee project evaluation reports. An analysis of these reports has provided some data on grantee activities, prior to the usage of the TTT survey, missing or incomplete data made it difficult to aggregate data across grantees in order to accurately describe to Congress the extent of program implementation. This data collection allows ED to gather data on a common set of indicators across grantees in order to describe and improve program inplementation with the end goal of improving program performance.

Priorities: This notice contains two absolute and three competitive preference priorities. The absolute priorities are from section 5421 of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965, as amended (ESEA) (20 U.S.C. 7245) and from the notice of Supplemental Priorities for Discretionary Grant Programs, published in the Federal Register on December 15, 2010 (75 FR 78485), and corrected on May 12, 2011 (76 FR 27637) (the ‘‘Supplemental Priorities’’).

Absolute Priorities: For FY 2012 and any subsequent year in which we make awards from the list of unfunded applicants from this competition, these priorities are absolute priorities. Under 34 CFR 75.105(c)(3) we consider only applications that meet these priorities. These priorities are: Absolute Priority 1: Establish or expand counseling programs in elementary schools, secondary schools, or both. Absolute Priority 2: Enabling More Data-Based Decision-Making. Projects that are designed to collect (or obtain), analyze, and use highquality and timely data, including data on program participant outcomes, in accordance with privacy requirements (as defined in this notice), in the following priority area: improving instructional practices, policies, and student outcomes in elementary or secondary schools. Competitive Preference Priorities: For FY 2012 and any subsequent year in which we make awards from the list of unfunded applicants from this competition, these priorities are competitive preference priorities. Under 34 CFR 75.105(c)(2)(i), we award up to an additional 5 points to an application, depending on how well the application meets one of the following three priorities. Applicants may address more than one of the competitive preference priorities; however, the Department will review and award points under only one of the priorities. Therefore, an applicant must identify in its application the competitive preference priority under which it is seeking points. An applicant must identify in the abstract section of its application the priority it wishes the Department to consider for purposes of earning competitive preference priority points. Note: The Department will not review or award points under any competitive preference priority for an application that (1) fails to clearly identify in the abstract the competitive preference priority the applicant wishes the Department to consider for purposes of earning competitive preference priority points, or (2) identifies more than one competitive preference priority the applicant wishes the Department to consider for purposes of earning competitive preference priority points. These priorities are: Competitive Preference Priority 1: Projects Serving Students Residing on Indian Lands. Under this priority, we give priority to applications for projects that are E:\FR\FM\10APN1.SGM 10APN1
