MSDS News

MSDS Offline April 10-15

The MSDS will be offline for maintenance beginning at 12:01 a.m. EDT on Wednesday, April 10 through Monday, April 15. Once the system is back online, the Spring 2019 DS4061s will be available for editing by ISD auditors.

Sec 32d GSRP Wait List - New Reporting Requirement

Per Public Act 586 of 2018, all districts that receive funds under Sec. 32d(16) have a new reporting requirement for children who meet the GSRP program eligibility criteria under subsection (5)(b) who are on a wait list. These data will be collected initially in the EC EOP 2019 Collection and in the spring for subsequent years.

The MSDS Collection Details Manual v1.4 has been updated with this information, and the EC EOP Collection schemas have been updated on the MSDS Early Childhood Collection website.

A communication from MDE with additional guidance is forthcoming. For policy questions, contact MDE’s Office of Great Start at 517-241-7004.
