sampled schools of their selection for
the survey and inviting them to
complete short Screener Surveys to
establish a point of contact at their
school. Additional materials may be
added to this package after the 60-day
public comment period is complete, in
time for the subsequent 30-day public
comment period that will begin in
December 2023/January 2024. In spring
of 2024, a clearance for main study data
collection activities with schools and
districts, including instruments for the
first quarter of monthly collections, will
be submitted 60-day and 30-day public
comment. Subsequent quarterly content
submissions will be submitted for 30day public comment. Because the
School Pulse Panel Survey is designed
to collect data on timely questions,
materials for SPP are cleared under two
OMB Number sequences. Materials for
SPP 2022 were cleared under OMB#
1850–0969, while 23–24 SPP were
cleared primarily under OMB# 1850–
0975. For 24–25 we return to OMB#
1850–0969.

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

Abstract: The Department is
requesting an extension of the approval
for the Generic Application Package that
numerous ED discretionary grant
programs use to provide to applicants
the forms and information needed to
apply for new grants under those grant
program competitions. The Department
will use this Generic Application
package for discretionary grant
programs that: (1) Use the standard ED
or Federal-wide grant applications
forms that have been cleared separately
through OMB under the terms of this
generic clearance as approved by OMB
and (2) use selection criteria from the
Education Department General
Administrative Regulations (EDGAR);
selection criteria that reflect statutory or
regulatory provisions that have been
developed under 34 CFR 75.209, or a
combination of EDGAR, statutory or
regulatory criteria or other provisions,
as authorized under 34 CFR 75.200 and
75.209. The use of the standard ED grant
application forms and the use of EDGAR
and/or criteria developed under
§§ 75.200 and 75.209 promotes the
standardization and streamlining of ED
discretionary grant application
packages.

Title of Collection: CSLD Annual
Performance Report.
OMB Control Number: 1810–NEW.
Type of Review: New ICR.
Respondents/Affected Public: State,

Total Estimated Number of Annual
Responses: 58.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Burden Hours: 638.
Abstract: The Comprehensive Literacy
State Development (CLSD) program is
authorized under the Elementary and
Secondary Education Act of 1965, as
amended (ESEA), sections 2222–2225.
The CLSD program awards competitive
grants to advance literacy skills—using
evidence-based practices, activities, and
interventions, including preliteracy
skills, reading, and writing—for
children from birth through grade 12,
with an emphasis on disadvantaged
children, including children living in
poverty, English learners, and children
with disabilities. Eligible entities
include the state education agencies
(SEAs) of the 50 states, the District of
Columbia, and Puerto Rico.
Additionally, directed awards are made
to four (4) Outlying Areas: American
Samoa, the Commonwealth of the
Northern Mariana Islands, Guam, and
the U.S. Virgin Islands. A portion of
funds is also awarded directly to the
Bureau of Indian Education.
CLSD requires that at least 95% of
funds awarded to SEAs be distributed to
local education agencies through a
subgrant award process. However, the
current OMB-approved ED generic grant
performance report does not include
fields to capture program (subgrantee)
demographic data or performance
measures to ensure grantees are meeting
statutory and regulatory requirements
and making progress toward meeting the
goals and objectives of their approved
projects. The proposed performance
report metrics reflect the need to collect
pertinent grantee- and subgrantee-level
data that could be used to guide future
program policy and practice and
respond to stakeholder, congressional,
and agency inquiries. Thus, the CLSD
program staff would better understand
whom they serve, programmatic needs,
strategies to meet those needs, and how
collecting program-level data would
benefit the students and support their
learning. The new CLSD performance
report metrics would (a) collect
programmatic data that demonstrate
aggregate program-level impact; (b)
provide subgrantees’ aggregated data,

such as the number of students and
professionals served, how funds have
been used (e.g., professional learning,
curricular materials), and staffing; and
(c) provide the CLSD program staff the
data to report the performance and
outcomes of the CLSD program, at both
the grantee and the subgrantee levels.
These new measures also would help to
add specificity to ED’s monitoring
efforts.
