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: National Household Education Survey 2019 
(NHES:2019).
    OMB Control Number: 1850-0768.
    Type of Review: A revision of an existing information collection.
    Respondents/Affected Public: Individuals or Households.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 123,177.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 12,964.
    Abstract: The National Household Education Survey (NHES) is a data 
collection program of the National Center for Education Statistics 
(NCES) designed to provide descriptive data on the education activities 
of the U.S. population, with an emphasis on topics that are appropriate 
for household surveys rather than institutional surveys. Such topics 
have covered a wide range of issues, including early childhood care and 
education, children's readiness for school, parents' perceptions of 
school safety and discipline, before- and after-school activities of 
school-age children, participation in adult and career education, 
parents' involvement in their children's education, school choice, 
homeschooling, and civic involvement. This request is to conduct the 
NHES:2019 full scale data collection, from December 2018 through 
September 2019, in conjunction with an In-Person Study of Nonresponding 
Households, designed to provide insight about nonresponse that can help 
plan future survey administrations. NHES 2019 will use mail and web 
data collection modes and will field two surveys: The Early Childhood 
Program Participation survey (ECPP) and the Parent and Family 
Involvement in Education survey (PFI).
