Title of Collection: Mandatory Civil
Rights Data Collection.
OMB Control Number: 1870–0504.
Type of Review: A revision of an
existing information collection request.
Respondents/Affected Public: State,
Local, and Tribal Governments.
Total Estimated Number of Annual

Abstract: The collection, use, and
reporting of education data is an integral
component of the mission of the U.S.
Department of Education (Department).
The Department has collected civil
rights data about the nation’s public
schools via the Civil Rights Data
Collection (CRDC) since 1968. As with
previous CRDC collections, the purpose
of the 2025–26 and 2027–28 CRDCs is
to obtain vital data related to the civil
rights laws’ requirement that public
local educational agencies (LEA) and
elementary and secondary schools
provide equal educational opportunity.
The Department has analyzed the uses
of many data elements collected in the
2020–21 CRDC and sought advice from
experts across the Department to refine,
improve, and where appropriate, add or
remove data elements from the
collection. CRDC data definitions and
metrics are consistent with other
mandatory collections across the
Department wherever possible. The
Department seeks the Office of
Management and Budget’s approval
under the Paperwork Reduction Act to
collect from LEAs the elementary and
secondary education data described in
the sections of Attachment A. The
Department requests that LEAs and
other stakeholders review and comment
on the proposed changes (detailed in
Supporting Statement A, Attachments
A–1, A–2, A–3, and A–4, and
Attachment B).

DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION
Application of the Revised Version of
the Uniform Guidance to Department
Grants
Office of Planning, Evaluation
and Policy Development, Department of
Education.
ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
The Secretary announces
updates to awardees’ Grant Award
Notices (GANs) to apply the 2024
revision of the Uniform Administrative
Requirements, Cost Principles, And
Audit Requirements for Federal Awards
the Uniform Guidance to all Department
grants that are subject to the Uniform
Guidance.
DATES: This change is effective January
16, 2025.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On April
22, 2024, the Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) published a final rule in
the Federal Register that revised the
Uniform Guidance (89 FR 30046). This
final rule, effective as of October 1,
2024, provided new flexibilities and due
process protections to grantees, and also
clarified several grant requirements. In
order to ensure that the new flexibilities
and due process protections for grantees
set out in that revised 2024 guidance
apply uniformly to Department grantees,
we have updated the terms and
conditions of Department grants to
clarify that the revised Uniform
Guidance (89 FR 30136, April 22, 2024)
is the version that applies to all
Department grants that are subject to the
Uniform Guidance.
Specifically, the Department is adding
the following condition to Box 10 of its
Grant Award Notifications (GANs):
SUMMARY:
By the drawdown of funds under this
GAN, the grantee accepts that this award is
subject to the requirements of the Uniform
Administrative Requirements, Cost
Principles and Audit Requirements for
Federal Awards; Title 2 CFR part 200 as
revised at 89 FR 30136–30208 (April 22,
2024).
While grantees will not automatically
receive a new printed GAN, the updated
Box 10 and this notice supersede any
previous GAN or notice that applied an
earlier version of the Uniform Guidance.
Grantees are not required to take any
action other than continuing to draw
down funds to take advantage of this
change but are encouraged to maintain
a copy of this notice within their grant
files as documentation for grant
management and auditing purposes.
