SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Department of Education (ED), in 
accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA) (44 U.S.C. 
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: Survey on the Use of Funds Under Title II, 
Part A: Improving Teacher Quality State Grants--State-Level Activity 
Funds.
    OMB Control Number: 1810-0711.
    Type of Review: A revision of an existing information collection.
    Respondents/Affected Public: State, Local, and Tribal Governments.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 52.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 520.
    Abstract: The Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965, as 
reauthorized by the Every Student Succeeds Act of 2015 (ESSA), provides 
funds to States to prepare, train, and recruit high-quality teachers, 
principals, and other school leaders. These funds are provided to 
districts through Title II, Part A (Supporting Effective Instruction 
Grants). The purpose of these surveys is to provide the U.S. Department 
of Education with a better understanding of how State Educational 
Agencies (SEAs) utilize these funds. This survey also collects data on 
teacher, principal, and other school leader effectiveness and retention 
for States to meet new reporting requirements.
    Similar data have been collected under the Survey on the Use of 
Funds Under Title II, Part A prior to reauthorization of ESEA. This OMB 
clearance request is to continue these types of analyses, but using new 
data collection instruments updated to reflect changes due to the 
reauthorization of ESEA by the ESSA. The request is to begin data 
collection and analyses for the 2018-19 school year and subsequent 
years.

    Dated: December 29, 2017.

Acting Director, Information Collection Clearance Division, Office of 
the Chief Privacy Officer, Office of Management.
