Download as PDF lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1 40232 Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 118 / Wednesday, June 21, 2023 / Notices develop and field the first several monthly collections of the SPP in 2021, and a full review of the SPP data collection was completed in 2022 (OMB# 1850–0969). SPP’s innovative design and timely dissemination of findings have been used and cited frequently among Department of Education senior leadership, the White House Domestic Policy Counsel, the USDA’s Food and Nutrition Service, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Congressional deliberations, and the media. The ongoing, growing interest by stakeholders has resulted in the request for dedicated funding to create an established NCES quickturnaround data collection vehicle, with the goal of standing up a post-pandemic panel to begin with the 2023–24 school year. The initial proposal for the next SPP study extended the collection to also collect data from school districts, but this has been canceled due to lack of funding. For the 23–24 school year, the survey may ask school staff about a range of topics, including but not limited to instructional mode offered; enrollment counts of subgroups of students for various subject interests; strategies to address learning recovery; safe and healthy school mitigation strategies; mental health services; use of technology; information on staffing, nutrition services, absenteeism, usage of federal funds, facilities, and overall principal and school staff experiences. Some new content will be rotated in and out monthly. As in previous waves, for SPP 2023– 24 roughly 8,000 (4,000 in an initial sample and 4,000 in a reserve sample) public elementary, middle, high, and combined-grade schools will be randomly selected to participate in a panel. The goal is national representation from 1,200 responding schools to report national estimates. School staff will be asked to provide requested data as frequently as monthly during the 23–24 school year. This approach provides the ability to collect detailed information on various topics while also assessing changes over time for items that are repeated. Given the high demand for data collection, the content of the survey will change monthly. This request is to conduct the SPP 2023–24 main study data collection activities, including instruments for the first quarter of monthly collections. These materials completed a 60-day public comment period in June 2023. They are now being published for 30 additional days of public comment. Some documents have been revised for the 30-day public comment period. VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:36 Jun 20, 2023 Jkt 259001 Subsequent quarterly content submissions will be submitted for 30day public comment periods. Dated: June 15, 2023.
