impact on the ability of students:

by a local educational agency;

subgrantee, State).
• Educating subgrantees/programs on data collection
can improve data quality.

How To Report:
Consolidated State Performance Report
• CSPR is a data collection instrument administered
annually by ED’s Office of Elementary and Secondary
Education (OESE).
• The required measures for Title I, Part D can be found
in CSPR section 2.4.
15
How To Report:
EDFacts
• EDFacts is an ED initiative to collect, analyze, report on,
and promote the use of high-quality performance data.

• Eventually, all CSPR data will be reported through the
EDFacts’ online Education Data Exchange Network
(EDEN) Submission System (ESS).
