Abstract: EDFacts is a U.S.
Department of Education (ED) initiative,
conducted by the National Center for
Education Statistics (NCES), to collect,
analyze, report on, and promote the use
of high-quality, pre-kindergarten
through grade 12 (pre-K–12)
performance data. By centralizing data
provided by state education agencies
about state level data, local education
agencies, and schools, NCES uses the
EDFacts data to report on students,
schools, staff, services, and education
outcomes at the state, district, and
school levels. The centralized approach
provides ED users with the ability to
efficiently analyze and report on
submitted data and has reduced the
reporting burden for state and local data
producers through the use of
streamlined data collection, analysis,
and reporting tools. EDFacts collects
information on behalf of ED grant and
program offices for approximately 170
data groups for all 50 states, Washington
DC, Puerto Rico, and seven outlying
areas and freely associated states
(American Samoa, Federated States of
Micronesia, Guam, Marshall Islands,
Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana
Islands, Republic of Palau, and the U.S.
Virgin Islands), the Department of
Defense Education Activity (DoDEA),
and the Bureau of Indian Education
(BIE). This request is to collect EDFacts
data for the 2022–23, 2023–24, and
2024–25 school years. This collection
package will be available for public

comment during two open periods, a 60
day and a 30 day, after which revisions
will be made accordingly. As part of the
public comment period review, ED
requests that SEAs and other
stakeholders respond to the directed
questions found in Attachment D and
D–1. Due to overlap in the timing of
data collection activities between
consecutive years of the EDFacts
collection, we are carrying over in this
submission the approved SY 2021–22
data collection, which is scheduled to
end in February 2023.
