The School-Level Finance Survey (SLFS) data collection is conducted annually by the National Center for
Education Statistics (NCES), within the U.S. Department of Education (ED). In November of 2018, the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) approved changes to the SLFS wherein variables have been added to make the
SLFS directly analogous to the F-33 Survey and to the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) provisions on
reporting expenditures per-pupil at the local education agency (LEA) and school-level. A previous request included
considerable modifications to the previous package, most important of which was the proposal for NCES to assist
the Office of Civil Rights (OCR) with collecting school level finance data as part of the Civil Right Data Collection
(CRDC), resulting in the establishment of SLFS as a mandatory data collection; this package was cleared in April
2023 (OMB# 1850-0930 v.4). This was immediately followed by a change request (OMB# 1850-0930 v.5) to add
the NCES response to public comments that were submitted during the 30D public comment period.
NCES is still working to ensure that respondents are ready for the changes introduced in OMB# 1850-0930 v.4.
This change request is to clear a letter to be sent to State Fiscal Coordinators in Summer 2023, ensuring that
they’re aware of how NCES plans to work with states and respondents to facilitate state data submissions. The
letter has been added to Appendix A and the full text is also included in the attached change memo. This change
involves no changes to the respondent burden or the cost to the federal government.
