This helps the Department assess the impact of its information collection requirements and minimize the public’s reporting burden. It also helps the public understand the Department’s information collection requirements and provide the requested data in the desired format. The Department is soliciting comments on the proposed information collection request (ICR) that is described below. The Department 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 that written comments received in response to this notice will be considered public records. Title of Collection: Study of District and School Uses of Federal Education Funds.

Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 250. Total Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 1,630. Abstract: Federal funds account for less than 10 percent of K–12 education spending nationally but can play an important role, particularly in communities that are lower-income or have lower-performing schools. Although each Federal education program has unique goals and provisions, they often allow funds to be used for similar purposes and services or overlapping populations. Congress provided State and local education agencies greater flexibility in their use of Federal funds through the 2015 reauthorization of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA). As the COVID–19 pandemic began to disrupt schools in 2020, Congress also created new programs to provide funding and flexibilities for States and districts to respond to the emergency. Because policymakers remain interested in how Federal dollars are spent, this study will examine the distribution and use of pandemic relief funds and explore the possibility of examining E:\FR\FM\13SEN1.SGM 13SEN1 62778 Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 176 / Wednesday, September 13, 2023 / Notices those issues for five ’’core’’ Federal education programs that represent the vast share of the Department’s K–12 grant making: part A of titles I, II, III, and IV of ESEA, and title I, part B of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA).

Abstract: In accordance with 20 U.S.C. 1416(b)(1), not later than 1 year after the date of enactment of the Individuals with Disabilities Education, as revised in 2004, each State must have in place a performance plan that evaluates the State’s efforts to implement the requirements and purposes of Part B and describe how the State will improve such implementation. This plan is called the Part B State Performance Plan (Part B— SPP). In accordance with 20 U.S.C. 1416(b)(2)(C)(ii) the State shall report annually to the public on the performance of each local educational agency located in the State on the targets in the State’s performance plan. The State also shall report annually to the Secretary on the performance of the State under the State’s performance plan. This report is called the Part B Annual Performance Report (Part B— APR). Information Collection 1820–0624 corresponds to 34 CFR 300.600– 300.602. In this information collection revision two revisions are proposed: (1) adding a separate general supervision indicator and continuing the requirement to report on the identification and correction of findings of all noncompliance related to SPP/APR compliance indicators; and (2) revising Indicators 4A and 4B to require States to report on elements of their existing methodology that are necessary for OSEP to analyze and determine the reasonableness of such methodology for SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: PO 00000 Frm 00009 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 identifying significant discrepancies in local educational agencies (LEAs). The proposed revisions are focused on improving results and the development and learning for all children with disabilities, and aligning with the administration’s priorities including, State general supervision systems and the disparities in the use of discipline for children with disabilities.
