The School Pulse Panel is uniquely structured to be responsive to the needs of policymakers. The monthly survey will encompass broad content domains, each with a series of measurement items addressing a specific research question. Throughout early 2023, NCES has met with policymakers across government and solicited potential areas of inquiry (as well as specific items) for potential inclusion in the 2023-24 SPP. The item bank presented here is a collection of proposed items, as well as previously administered items from the 2021 SPP.
As described in Part A, the collection of items that will be used in each monthly data collection will be submitted for 30D public comment each quarter. The questionnaires to be administered in August, September, and October 2023 have been added to this package as Appendix C1. The questionnaires to be administered in November 2023, December 2023, and January 2024 have been added to this package as Appendix C2.

Conclusion
Is there any other information you would like to share with us regarding your school that would be necessary for us to update our records for the 2022-23 school year? Include instances like a school name change or a merge with another school.
The School Pulse Panel (SPP) was a monthly study conducted by the U.S. Department of Education’s National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) to evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on public schools. Our records indicate that you or someone from your school participated in at least one of the monthly collections between January 2022 and December 2022.
We are interested in learning about the experiences of those who responded to the School Pulse Panel’s monthly data collection. The person who responds to this survey should be the person who was primarily responsible for responding to the monthly surveys. If you were not the person who was primarily responsible for responding to the monthly surveys, please forward this survey to the appropriate person.
After the questions on the follow-up survey, we will ask you to answer questions about when and how your school collects information on the race and ethnicity of your students and teachers. The United States Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has proposed changes to the way information on race and ethnicity is collected by the Federal government. Your responses will be used to help NCES better understand schools' ability to collect such data if changes are implemented.
