Title of Collection: Statewide
Longitudinal Data System (SLDS)
Survey 2020–2022.
OMB Control Number: 1850–0933.
Type of Review: A revision of an
existing information collection.
Respondents/Affected Public: State,
Local, and Tribal Governments.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Responses: 112.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Burden Hours: 140.
Abstract: As authorized by the
Educational Technical Assistance Act of
2002, Title II, the Statewide
Longitudinal Data Systems (SLDS) Grant
Program has awarded competitive,
cooperative agreement grants to states
since 2005. Through grants and a
growing range of services and resources,
the program has helped propel the
successful design, development,
implementation, and expansion of K12
and P–20W (early learning through the
workforce) longitudinal data systems.
These systems are intended to enhance
the ability of States to efficiently and
accurately manage, analyze, and use
education data, including individual
student records. The SLDSs should help
states, districts, schools, educators, and
other stakeholders to make datainformed decisions to improve student
learning and outcomes; as well as to
facilitate research to increase student
achievement and close achievement
gaps. The SLDS grants extend for three
to five years for up to twenty million
dollars per grantee, and grantees are
obligated to submit annual reports and
a final report on the development and
implementation of their systems. All 50
states, five territories, and the District of
Columbia are eligible to apply, and each
state can apply multiple times to

develop different aspects of their data
system. Since November 2005, 97 grants
have been awarded. In addition to the
grants, the program offers many services
and resources to assist education
agencies with SLDS-related work. Best
practices, lessons learned, and nonproprietary products/solutions
developed by recipients of these grants
and other states are disseminated to aid
all state and local education agencies.
The request to formalize the annual
SLDS Interim Progress Report (IPR) as
the SLDS Survey, intended to provide
insight on state and U.S. territory SLDS
capacity for automated linking of K–12,
teacher, postsecondary, workforce,
career and technical education (CTE),
adult education, and early childhood
data, and to conduct the annual SLDS
Survey from 2017 through 2019 was
approved in February 2017 with the
latest change request approved in
August 2019 (1850–0933 v.1–7). The
SLDS Survey helps inform ongoing
evaluation and targeted technical
assistance efforts to enhance the quality
of the SLDS Program’s support to states.
This request is to conduct the annual
SLDS Survey from 2020 through 2022,
and introduces a new online form for
data collection.
