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

    Abstract: In order to move America toward the goal of ensuring that 
every student in every public school has equitable access to excellent 
educators, the U.S. Department of Education (Department) asks each 
State educational agency (SEAA) to submit a plan describing the steps 
it will take to ensure that ``poor and minority children are not taught 
at higher rates than other children by inexperienced, unqualified, or 
out-of-field teachers,'' as required by section 1111(b)(8)(C) of the 
Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 (ESEA).
