    Abstract: The purpose of the 21st Century Community Learning 
Centers program (21st CCLC program), as reauthorized under Title IV, 
Part B, of the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001, 4201 et seq., (20 U.S. 
Code 7171 et seq.), is to provide expanded academic enrichment 
opportunities for children attending low-performing schools. To reflect 
the changes in the authorization and administration of the 21st CCLC 
program and to comply with its reporting requirements, the U.S. 
Department of Education (ED) is requesting authorization for the 
collection of data through Web-based, data-collection modules, the 
Annual Performance Report, the Grantee Profile, the Competition 
Overview, and the State Activities module, which collectively will be 
housed in an application called the 21st CCLC Profile and Performance 
Information Collection System. The data will continue to be used to 
fulfill ED's requirement under the Government Performance and Results 
Act to report to Congress annually on the implementation and progress 
of 21st CCLC projects and the use of state administrative and technical 
assistance funds allocated to the states to support the program. The 
data collection will also provide State Educational Agency (SEA) 
liaisons with needed descriptive data about their grantees and allow 
SEA liaisons to conduct performance monitoring and identify areas of 
needed technical assistance.
