Federal Data Reporting and the Consolidated State Performance Report (CSPR)


 

 

Overview

The Consolidated State Performance Report (CSPR) is a data collection instrument administered by the Department of Education's (ED's) Office of Elementary and Secondary Education (OESE) on an annual basis. All States that receive funding on the basis of the Consolidated State Application for the applicable school year must respond to the reporting requirements in the CSPR.

The purpose of the CSPR is to collect program data that ED can use to demonstrate the effectiveness of Title I, Part D programs in relation to the progress students are making regarding academic, vocational, and transition outcomes. States may also use their own CSPR data for self-assessment purposes. Currently, measures collected in the CSPR for the State Agency (Subpart 1) and the Local Agency (Subpart 2) Programs are the same and focus on four areas:

Data collected through the CSPR for school years (SY) 2004-05 through 2008-09 is available through NDTAC's State and National Fast Facts Web pages.

ED also conducts an Annual Count of students who live in institutions for youth who are neglected or delinquent. The Annual Count data are used to help determine Federal Title I Part A and Part D allocations to the States each year. It is important to note that the data collected for the Annual Count are not the same as the student count data reported in the CSPR. They are two separate collections, used for two different purposes. The criteria for being included in the Annual Count are outlined in the Annual Count guidance (Word). In contrast, all students that were served using Part D funds should be included in the CSPR. Depending on the timing of each collection, States may request that State Agency and Local Education Agency subgrantees report data for each collection around the same time of year.


CSPR Timelines and Submission

The Title I, Part D section of the CSPR requests data for the previous school year, which is typically defined as July 1-June 30. For the 2010 CSPR, data to be reported are for SY 2008-2009.

The CSPR consists of two parts, each of which has a separate delivery date. Title I, Part D programs are contained in Part II of the CSPR. For the 2010 CSPR, the Part II deadline is February 12, 2010 at 5:00 p.m., EST. Often, there is a data verification period after the deadline, and States are provided with a window in which to update any missing or erroneous data.

Data must be submitted online through ED's Education Data Exchange Network (EDEN). Every State has a different system for determining who is able to access EDEN and report the data for the State. As a result, State reporting timelines may be earlier than the ED deadline. Contact your State data manager or Title I, Part D program coordinator for more information.
