The Sending Scores Back Program attributes student accountability to a school in the student's district of residence. Approved applicants have school accountability reporting adjusted to have non-resident students "sent back" to be included in a school within students' resident districts. The Sending Scores Back Program application window for the 2024-25 school year is coming soon! Applications will be available through Monday, January 13, 2025.
To participate in the Sending Scores Back Program, an entity must have status as a Shared Educational Entity (SEE) or Specialized Shared Educational Entity (S2E2) in the EEM. SEE/S2E2 status allows for increased reporting flexibility in the Michigan Student Data System (MSDS). The relationships among consortium/ISD member districts participating in the shared educational services of a SEE/S2E2 are governed by a cooperative agreement.
