Abstract:
The Consolidated State Performance Report (CSPR) is the required annual reporting tool for each State, the Bureau of Indian Education, District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico as authorized under Section 8303 of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA), as amended by the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA). The CSPR collects data on programs authorized by: Title I, Part A; Title I, Part C; Title I, Part D; Title II, Part A; Title III, Part A; Title IV Part A; Title V, Part A; Title V, Part B, Subparts 1 and 2; and The McKinney-Vento Act. The information in this collection relate to the performance and monitoring activities of the aforementioned programs under ESSA and the McKinney-Vento Act. These data are needed for reporting on Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA) as well as other reporting requirements under ESSA. This submission is a request to update the currently-approved CSPR collection (OMB 1810-0724) for school years 2025-26, 2026-27, and 2027-28. There are number of substantive changes to the collection since it was last approved. The proposed changes are to remove questions from the collections and combine CSPR I and II into a single CSPR collection. The questions we propose to eliminate include Assessment waivers, Title III, Part A allocation timeline, McKinney-Vento and ARP Homeless, Certification requirement for OME, Postsecondary URLs, Title I, Part D, and Funding Transferability for State and Local Education Agencies. Finally, the last change is combining the CSPR I and II into a single CSPR collection.
