    Abstract: The National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), U.S. 
Department of Education (ED), proposes to employ the Fast Response 
Survey System (FRSS) to conduct a district survey about dropout 
prevention services and programs. This survey will provide the first 
nationally representative data on this topic by capturing a current 
snapshot of dropout prevention services and programs available within 
the nation's public school districts. In addition, the survey will 
cover factors and methods used to identify students at risk of dropping 
out, mentoring and transition supports used by the district, the 
entities with which districts work in their dropout prevention efforts, 
information provided to students who appear highly likely to drop out, 
follow-up efforts when a student drops out, and information used by the 
district in determining whether to implement additional dropout 
prevention efforts district-wide.
