3506(c)(2)(A)), provides the general

public and Federal agencies with an opportunity to comment on proposed, 
revised, and continuing collections of information. 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. ED is soliciting 
comments on the proposed information collection request (ICR) that is 
described below. The Department of Education 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: DC School Choice Incentive Program.
    OMB Control Number: 1855-0015.
    Type of Review: An extension of an existing information collection.
    Respondents/Affected Public: Individuals or Households.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 3,000.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 1,000.
    Abstract: The DC School Choice Incentive Program, authorized by the 
Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2004, awarded a grant to the DC 
Children and Youth Investment Trust Corporation that will administer 
scholarships to students who reside in the District of Columbia and 
come from households whose incomes do not exceed 185% of the poverty 
line. Priority is given to students who are currently attending schools 
in need of improvement, as defined by Title I. To assist in the student 
selection and assignment process, the information collected is used to 
determine the eligibility of those students who are interested in the 
available scholarships. Also, since the authorizing statute requires an 
evaluation we are proposing to collect certain family demographic 
information because they are important predictors of school success. 
Finally, we are asking to collect information about parental 
participation and satisfaction because these are key topics that the 
statute requires the evaluation to address.
