accurate; (4) how might the Department enhance the quality, utility,

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: School Survey on Crime and Safety (SSOCS) 2016 
and 2018.
    OMB Control Number: 1850-0761.
    Type of Review: A reinstatement of a previously approved 
information collection.
    Respondents/Affected Public: Individuals or Households.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 3,919.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 1,795.
    Abstract: The School Survey on Crime and Safety (SSOCS) is a 
nationally representative survey of elementary and secondary school 
principals that serves as the primary source of school-level data on 
crime and safety in public schools. SSOCS is the only recurring federal 
survey collecting detailed information on the incidence, frequency, 
seriousness, and nature of violence affecting students and school 
personnel from the school's perspective. Data are also collected on 
frequency and types of disciplinary actions taken for select offenses; 
perceptions of other disciplinary problems, such as bullying, verbal 
abuse and disorder in the classroom; the presence and role of school 
security staff; parent and community involvement; staff training; 
mental health services available to students; and, school policies and 
programs concerning crime and safety. Prior administrations of SSOCS 
were conducted in 2000, 2004, 2006, 2008, and 2010. This request is to 
conduct the 2016 and 2018 administrations of SSOCS.

    Dated: May 28, 2015.
