Department’s information collection
requirements and provide the requested
data in the desired format. ED is

Education is especially interested in
public comment addressing the
following issues: (1) Is this collection
necessary to the proper functions of the
Department; (2) will this information be
processed and used in a timely manner;
(3) is the estimate of burden accurate;
(4) how might the Department enhance
the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (5) how
might the Department minimize the
burden of this collection on the
respondents, including through the use
of information technology. Please note

Native Hawaiian students, requires a
written agreement between the
applicant and the educational entity
that will provide career and technical

Title of Collection: High School and
Beyond 2020 (HS&B:20) Base-Year FullScale Study Recruitment and Field Test
Update.
OMB Control Number: 1850–0944.
Type of Review: A revision of an
existing information collection.
Respondents/Affected Public:
Individuals or Households.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Responses: 53,503.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Burden Hours: 35,635.
Abstract: The High School and
Beyond 2020 study (HS&B:20) will be
the sixth in a series of longitudinal
studies at the high school level
conducted by the National Center for
Education Statistics (NCES), within the
Institute of Education Sciences (IES) of
the U.S. Department of Education.

HS&B:20 will follow a nationally
representative sample of ninth grade
students from the start of high school in
the fall of 2020 to the spring of 2024
when most will be in twelfth grade. A
field test will be conducted one year
prior to the full-scale study. The study
sample will be freshened in 2024 to
create a nationally representative
sample of twelfth-grader students. A
high school transcript collection and
additional follow-up data collections
beyond high school are also planned.
The NCES secondary longitudinal
studies examine issues such as students’
readiness for high school; the risk
factors associated with dropping out of
high school; high school completion;
the transition into postsecondary
education and access/choice of
institution; the shift from school to
work; and the pipeline into science,
technology, engineering, and
mathematics (STEM). They inform
education policy by tracking long-term
trends and elucidating relationships
among student, family, and school
characteristics and experiences.
HS&B:20 will follow the Middle Grades
Longitudinal Study of 2017/18
(MGLS:2017) which followed the Early
Childhood Longitudinal Study,
Kindergarten Class of 2010–11 (ECLS–
K:2011), thereby allowing for the study
of all transitions from elementary school
through high school and into higher
education and/or the workforce.
HS&B:20 will include surveys of
students, parents, students’ math
teachers, counselors, and
administrators, plus a student
assessment in mathematics and reading
and a brief hearing and vision test. The
HS&B:20 Base-Year Full-Scale study
(BYFS) will begin in the fall of 2020.
The request to conduct the HS&B:20
Base-Year Field Test (BYFT) and the
BYFS sampling and state, school
district, school, and parent recruitment
activities, both scheduled to begin in the
fall of 2019, was approved in June 2019
(OMB# 1850–0944 v.1–2). These
activities include collecting student
rosters and selecting the BYFS sample.
This request is to: (1) Add instruction to
the BYFT student roster template; (2)
add response options to BYFT school
administrator questionnaire; (3) revise
existing and add new BYFT recruitment
materials; and (4) finalize the BYFS
student session length. Approval for the
base-year full scale study data collection
will be requested in a separate
submission in early 2020.
