Staff Survey – Teacher
Draft for OMB
February 2020
Public reporting burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 30 minutes per response, including the time for reviewing
instructions, gathering and maintaining the data needed, and reviewing the collection of information. An agency may not conduct or sponsor,
and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. The OMB number
and expiration date for this collection are OMB #: 0970-0354, Exp: 10/31/2021.
INTRODUCTION
Thank you for taking the time to let us speak with you today. This survey is part of the Baby
FACES study. We obtained permission from the director of your program to talk with you about
your experiences in Early Head Start. We appreciate your time and effort in completing this
survey.
This collection of information will be used to describe the characteristics of children and families
served by Early Head Start, and the characteristics and features of programs and staff that serve
them. Your participation in the study is voluntary. Please be assured that all information you
provide will be kept private to the extent permitted by law. The questions I will be asking today
have been approved by the Federal Office of Management and Budget, also known as OMB. We
are only allowed to ask you these questions and you can only answer them if there is a valid OMB
control number. For the questions asked as part of today’s discussion, the OMB control number
is 0970–0354 and it expires on 10/31/2021.
The survey will take about 30 minutes to complete.
