The purpose of this survey is to
provide statistics about the finances of elementary and secondary
public school systems. We collect revenue data including: local
property tax, revenues from other school systems, private tuition
and transportation payments, school lunch charges, direct federal
and state aid, and federal aid passed through the state government.
We also collect expenditures by function and object. These
expenditures include: instruction, support service functions,
salaries, benefits, and capital outlay. Other data included in this
survey are indebtedness, and cash and investments. Fiscal data for
school systems are collected centrally from state education
agencies, since these are part of more detailed data routinely
collected for state education aid programs.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that
the collection of information encompassed by this request complies
with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR
1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding
the proposed collection of information, that the certification
covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a
benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control
number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of
these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked
