Abstract: Initial data collection for an impact evaluation of a Department program that provides grants to districts to implement student drug testing.

Emergency Justfication: 2005 ED began a randomized controlled trial of grantees who applied for OSDFS funds under a competitive priority to implement manadatory ramdom student drug testing and who agreed to participate in the evaluation. That evaluation was cancelled in Sept 2005 because an insufficient number of grantees applies under the competitive priority. The evaluation's forms clearance package, about to be reviewed by OMB, was therefore withdrawn at that time. With OMB's support, a second, slightly revised, round of grant and evaluation competitions were completed in FY 2006. Grants were awarded by OSDFS to 11 districts and 52 schools. The evaluation design requires a very quick start, because the baseline students surveys must be completed in Feb 2007, and a variety of activities must be undertaken in late Jan/early Feb to sample students for the surveys, obtain parental consent, and schedule the survey administrations in grantee school.
