Abstract: The Common Core of Data is the National Center for Education Statistics' universe data collection for finance and nonfinance information about public school districts and schools. Information is collected annually from school districts about their member schools including enrollment by grade, race/ethnicity, and gender. Information is also collected about students receiving various types of services such as English Language Learner services. The CCD also collects information about the occurrence of high school dropouts. Information about teachers and staffing is also collected.

Burden decreases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: Yes

Burden Reduction Due to: Cutting Redundancy

Short Statement: Burden is decreasing because it is expected that about 47 states will report via EDEN. There is no increase in burden although ROCIS reports an increase due to newly added ICs since ED now needs to show the breakdown of the different instruments. There are no new items (instruments) from the previous collection; the overall burden shows a decrease in hours.
