The 2006 Civil Rights Data Collection (CRDC) will provide data on key education and civil rights issues in our nation's public schools. The CRDC collects information about students in public schools, including enrollment, educational services, and academic proficiency results, disaggregated by race/ethnicity, sex, limited English proficiency, and disability. A sample of districts were selected for the survey and their participation is mandatory. This information is used by ED's Office for Civil Rights (OCR) and other ED offices as well as policymakers outside of ED.
