Re: National Household Education Survey 2019 (NHES:2019) Spanish Materials Change Request (OMB# 1850-0768 v.17)

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. The request 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 was approved in September 2018 with the latest update approved in October 2018 (OMB# 1850-0768 v.14-16). 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). This request provides the Spanish-language translation of respondent materials for the NHES:2019 In-Person Study of Nonresponding Households.

All materials in section B.2, on pages 36-59, of Appendix 4 are newly added, these are verbatim translations of the materials already approved in section B.1.

The changes described in this document do not affect the total cost to the federal government for this study. The revision to the estimated response burden is detailed below.
