13 Teacher Follow-Up Survey
(TFS:2013) and Principal Follow-Up
Survey (PFS:2013) to the Schools and
Staffing Survey (SASS)
This request from the
National Center for Education Statistics
(NCES), of the U.S. Department of
Education (ED), is for clearance for the
full scale data collection for the 2012–
13 Teacher Follow-up Survey
(TFS:2013) and Principal Follow-up
Survey (PFS:2013) to the 2011–12
Schools and Staffing Survey
(SASS:2012). The seventh cycle of SASS
(2011–12) is currently being conducted
and the proposed TFS:2013 will be the
seventh corresponding cycle of TFS,
while PFS:2013 will be the second cycle
of PFS. The Schools and Staffing Survey
(SASS) is an in-depth, nationallyrepresentative survey of first through
twelfth grade public and private school
teachers, principals, schools, library
media centers, and school districts.
Kindergarten teachers in schools with at
least a first grade are also surveyed. For
traditional public school districts,
principals, schools, teachers, and school
libraries, the survey estimates are staterepresentative. For public charter
schools, principals, teachers, and school

libraries, the survey estimates are
nationally-representative. For private
school principals, schools, and teachers,
the survey estimates are representative
of private school types. The TFS is a
survey of teachers with the main
purpose of providing a one-year teacher
attrition rate. The PFS is a survey of
principals that assesses how many
school principals work in the same
school as reported a year earlier in
SASS:2012, how many have moved to
become a principal at another school,
and how many have left the
principalship altogether. Similar to
earlier TFS collections, the TFS:2013
sample of 7,000 teachers (drawn using
a sampling design similar to that used
in earlier TFS collections) is a subsample of the teachers who responded
to SASS:2012. The PFS:2013 sample
includes all of the approximately 9,800
schools whose principals completed
questionnaires in SASS:2012.
DATES: Interested persons are invited to
submit comments on or before
September 26, 2012.

regarding burden and/or the collection
activity requirements should be
