    Abstract: The study is being conducted as part of the National 
Assessment of Title I, mandated by Title I, Part E, Section 1501 of the 
Elementary and Secondary Education Act. The data obtained by this 
information collection will provide a sampling frame of eligible 
schools for the National Title I Study of Implementation and Outcomes: 
Early Childhood Language Development (ECLD). Once school districts have 
been indentified to participate in the study, they will be asked to 
complete a short form providing information about Title I schools in 
their district. This information includes the percent of students in a 
selected school that are eligible for free-or-reduced-price lunch, 
percent of third graders who are classified as reading proficient on 
state assessments in 2009-10, grade levels in selected schools, and 
number of students in each grade. Based on the information provided, up 
to ten schools per district will be randomly selected to participate in 
the full-scale study. The U.S. Department of Education has Mathematica 
Policy Research to conduct this study.
