Summary
This technical report provides results of an analysis of unit response rates for the components of the 1993-94 Schools and Staffing Survey (SASS). The report describes the survey design and nonresponse adjustment procedures for each of the components of SASS. A primary focus of the analysis is to compare the response rates for known characteristics of schools, administrators, teachers, school districts, libraries, librarians, and student records, and to assess the extent and pattern of these differences.
