The School Pulse Panel (SPP), sponsored by the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), part of the Institute of Education Sciences (IES), within the United States Department of Education, collects insightful data on U.S. public schools. Originally focusing on the 2021-22 school year to assess the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on students and staff, the survey has since broadened its scope to address various evolving educational topics. Conducted by the U.S. Census Bureau, the SPP continues into the 2024-25 school year, surveying school principals monthly on key issues such as staffing, attendance, after-school programs, learning recovery, digital literacy, mental health, and more.
The September 2021 SPP survey asked about schools' offering performing arts activities (for example, band, choir, orchestra, or drama) and how these activities were affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.
