MSDS EOY General and SRM Collections Closing 6/30

The Michigan Student Data System (MSDS) EOY 2015 General Collection will close at 11:59 p.m. EDT on Tuesday, June 30, 2015. The certification status for your district's collection must be "Written to Queue – Available for Certification," "Processing Certification" or "Certified" by this deadline. Your staging area must be error-free and you must successfully complete the Quality Review process before the system will allow you to certify.

This is your district's final opportunity to report student enrollments and exits, make adjustments to student demographic data, and report student attendance for the 2014-15 school year. Please pay special attention to program eligibility or participation data, including LEP exits, special education discipline, initial IEPs, McKinney-Vento, 31a eligibility, and supplemental nutrition eligibility.

The 2014-15 SRM Collection also closes on June 30 and will reopen on July 20 for the submission of Section 23a claims and exit status changes for the Graduation Rate Appeals Window.

REP Submission Deadline Reminder

The EOY 2015 Registry of Educational Personnel (REP) deadline is 11:59 p.m. EDT, June 30, 2015. Be sure to check your Personnel Submitted reports in REP to ensure that all of your records have been updated and that all of your new employees have been properly reported. When all current employee records have green check marks and all new staff member records have been submitted and have green check marks, the submission is complete.

SID Submission Deadline Reminder

The EOY 2015 School Infrastructure Database (SID) deadline is 11:59 p.m. EDT, June 30, 2015. All schools/facilities that have been successfully submitted will show green check marks to the right of the school/facility name under the heading "Status" on the SID Main Menu. When a school/facility indicates a red "X," there are still fields yet to be updated on the submission screen. When all of the schools/facilities in the district have a green check mark, the submission is complete. All successfully submitted records will show green check marks next to the incident numbers and dual enrollment information.

MSDS 2014-15 TSDL Collection

The Teacher-Student Data Link (TSDL) Collection remains open through July 29, 2015. While districts have the ability to submit course data and final grades at any time prior to the certification deadline, all records must be certified by July 29, 2015 at 11:59 p.m. EDT.

As a reminder, all migrant-eligible students taking high school courses must be submitted within 10 days of enrolling or exiting the district. This requirement also applies to migrant students taking CTE high school courses.
