ACTION
: Notice; correction.
SUMMARY
: On February 8, 2019, we
published in the Federal Register (FR)
a notice inviting applications (NIA) for
fiscal year (FY) 2019 for the College
Assistance Migrant Program (CAMP),
Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance
(CFDA) number 84.149A. This notice
corrects the national target pertaining to
a performance measure that applies to
this program.
DATES
: Deadline for Transmittal of
Applications: April 9, 2019.
Deadline for Intergovernmental
Review: June 10, 2019.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION
: On
February 8, 2019, we published in the
Federal Register an NIA for this
program (84 FR 2835) that identified
national targets for CAMP Government
Performance and Results Act of 1993
(GPRA) performance measures.
Additionally, we posted an application
package for the program on the
Department’s website at https://
www2.ed.gov/programs/camp/fy19-
camp-application.pdf and Grants.gov.
Since that time, we have discovered
that the CAMP NIA incorrectly
identifies the national target for GPRA
measure 2, the percentage of CAMP
participants who, after completing the
first academic year of college, continue
their postsecondary education, as 85
percent for FY 2019. The correct
national target for GPRA measure 2 is 90
percent for FY 2019. Additionally, the
CAMP application package instructions
incorrectly identify the GPRA measure 2
as 85 percent on page 60; the
application package instructions,
however, correctly identify the CAMP
GPRA measure 2 as 90 percent on page
8 of the application package. We
previously announced in the publicly
available CAMP FY 2017 Program
Performance Report that the CAMP
GPRA measure 2 is 90 percent for FY
2019. We are publishing this correction
notice to clarify that the CAMP GPRA
measure 2 remains 90 percent for FY
2019.
Applicants that have already
submitted timely applications may
submit a revised application that
contains the correct national target for
CAMP GPRA measure 2, but are not
required to do so. Applicants that have
already submitted timely applications
and do not submit a revised application
will still be expected to meet the correct
national target for CAMP GPRA measure
2 identified in this notice.
Instructions for submitting an
application can be found in the NIA.
Correction: In FR Document 2019–
01701, on page 2839, in the first
column, in the second paragraph of the
section entitled ‘‘Performance
Measures,’’ we replace ‘‘The national
target for GPRA measure 2 for FY 2019
is that 85 percent of CAMP participants
continue their postsecondary education
after completing the first academic year
of college’’ with ‘‘The national target for
GPRA measure 2 for FY 2019 is that 90
percent of CAMP participants continue
their postsecondary education after
completing the first academic year of
college.’’
Program Authority: 20 U.S.C. 1070d–2.
Accessible Format: Individuals with
disabilities can obtain this document
and a copy of the application package in

print, audiotape, or compact disc) on

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION
: The
Department of Education (ED), in
accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA) (44 U.S.C.
3506(c)(2)(A)), provides the general
public and Federal agencies with an
opportunity to comment on proposed,
revised, and continuing collections of
information. This helps the Department
assess the impact of its information
collection requirements and minimize
the public’s reporting burden. It also
helps the public understand the
Department’s information collection
requirements and provide the requested
data in the desired format. ED is
soliciting comments on the proposed
information collection request (ICR) that
is described below. The Department of
Education is especially interested in
public comment addressing the
following issues: (1) Is this collection
necessary to the proper functions of the
Department; (2) will this information be
processed and used in a timely manner;
(3) is the estimate of burden accurate;
(4) how might the Department enhance
the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (5) how
might the Department minimize the
burden of this collection on the
respondents, including through the use
of information technology. Please note
that written comments received in
response to this notice will be
considered public records.
Title of Collection: National Teacher
and Principal Survey of 2020–2021
(NTPS 2020–21) Preliminary Field
Activities.
OMB Control Number: 1850–0598.
Type of Review: A revision of an
existing information collection.
Respondents/Affected Public:
Individuals or Households.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Responses: 10,525.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Burden Hours: 3,322.
Abstract: The National Teacher and
Principal Survey (NTPS), conducted
biennially by the National Center for
Education Statistics (NCES), is a system
of related questionnaires that provides
descriptive data on the context of
elementary and secondary education.
Redesigned from the Schools and
Staffing Survey (SASS) with a focus on
flexibility, timeliness, and integration
with other ED data, the NTPS system
allows for school, principal, and teacher
characteristics to be analyzed in relation
to one another. NTPS is an in-depth,
nationally representative survey of first
through twelfth grade public and private
school teachers, principals, and schools.
Kindergarten teachers in schools with at
least a first grade are also surveyed.
NTPS utilizes core content and a series
of rotating modules to allow timely
collection of important education trends
as well as trend analysis. Topics
covered include characteristics of
teachers, principals, schools, teacher
training opportunities, retention,
retirement, hiring, and shortages. The
next administration of NTPS was
originally planned for 2019–20 and the
NTPS 2019–20 preliminary activities
were approved in October 2018 with a
change request approved in February
2019 (OMB# 1850–0598 v.24–25).
However, due to staffing shortages at
NCES, NCES had to delay the NTPS
2019–20 administration by one year, to
the 2020–21 school year. No changes are
planned to the materials and procedures
approved for NTPS preliminary
activities (OMB# 1850–0598 v.24–25),
besides delaying all activities by one
year. This request provides the dates,
procedures, and materials for NTPS
2020–21 preliminary activities. After
NTPS 2020–21, NCES plans to
administer the next NTPS three years
later, during the 2023–24 school year.
Following the 2023–24 administration,
NTPS is expected to be conducted every
2 years if resources allow.
