Collection of the Week:
Annual State Application Under Part B of the Individuals with Disabilities Act. This set of forms is used to determine whether a state is eligible for Part B funding under the IDEA. ED is revising the collection to remove the Significant Disproportionality data collection, which was used to determine if significant disproportionality based on race or ethnicity is occurring in the State with respect to the identification of children as children with disabilities, including identification as children with particular impairments; the placement of children in particular educational settings; and the incidence, duration, and type of disciplinary actions, including suspensions and expulsions.
