Individuals interested in conducting research within the Clarksville Montgomery County School System (CMCSS) must first seek and receive permission from the District Research Committee. View the procedures for this process that are outlined in the Approval of Request to Conduct Research Procedure (INS-P014).
The CMCSS Research Procedures Handbook outlines the steps necessary to receive permission to conduct research. Additional information for requesting permission to conduct research can be found in the links below:
CMCSS does not conduct a formal IRB for research. However, we do have a district level Research Committee which must approve all research prior to any data collection. Additionally, if the institution an individual is conducting research which requires an IRB from their governing body the district must have a copy of the researcher’s approved IRB as part of the application to conduct research. This and other requirements necessary to conduct research in CMCSS are outlined in the linked handbook above. Questions and/or applications may be sent to: [email protected].
