EDFacts is a U.S. Department of Education (ED) initiative, conducted by the National Center for
Education Statistics (NCES), to collect, analyze, report on, and promote the use of high-quality, prekindergarten through grade 12 (pre-K–12) performance data for use in education planning,
policymaking, and management and budget decision making to improve outcomes for students. By
centralizing data provided by state education agencies about state level data, local education agencies,
and schools, NCES uses the EDFacts data to report on students, schools, staff, services, and
education outcomes at the state, district, and school levels. The centralized approach provides ED
users with the ability to efficiently analyze and report on submitted data and has reduced the reporting
burden for state and local data producers through the use of streamlined data collection, analysis, and
reporting tools. EDFacts collects information on behalf of ED grant and program offices for
approximately 150 data groups for all 50 states, Washington DC, Puerto Rico, and seven outlying areas
and freely associated states (American Samoa, Federated States of Micronesia, Guam, Marshall
Islands, Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, Republic of Palau, and the U.S. Virgin
Islands), the Department of Defense Education Activity (DoDEA), and the Bureau of Indian Education
(BIE). The request to collect EDFacts data for the 2019-20, 2020-21, and 2021-22 school years was
approved in August 2019 (OMB# 1850-0925 v.4, with the last revision to the package July 2020). There
is one change requested in this memo. The change is a result of the Perkins V reauthorization, new
reporting requirements in the Consolidated Annual Report (CAR) for the Carl D. Perkins Career and
Technical Education Act of 2006 (OMB 1830-0569), and data reporting efficiencies identified by the
Office of Career and Technical Education (OCTAE). This change does not change respondent burden
or cost to the federal government.
