Michigan
The Michigan Student Data System (MSDS) is a collaborative effort between the Center for Educational Performance and Information (CEPI), the Michigan Department of Education (MDE), and local school districts. The MSDS is a repository that contains information regarding students receiving education in Michigan. Data collected in this system are vital to district success.
The following student identification information is updated on the OEAA Secure Site from the MSDS data, specifically based on the PEPE’s General Collection or SRM submission. If a student’s information is submitted by two different districts, the information that populates the OEAA Secure Site is based on PEPE’s submission.
- name
- birth date
- UIC (Unique Identification Code)
- ethnicity
- gender
- student number
- address
Student demographic data are also updated in the OEAA Secure Site using information from the MSDS, but on a different basis. Demographic subgroup information that populates the OEAA Secure Site is based on the information designated by a student’s
UIC, regardless of whether a student’s demographic information is submitted by either the student’s PEPE or non-PEPE district, or both.
Student demographic data includes the following subgroups:
- English Learner (EL)
- Formerly English Learner (FEL)
- Special Education (SE)
- Home Schooled (HS)
- Homeless (HL)
- Migrant Status (MS)
- Economically Disadvantaged (ED)
- Foster Care
- Military Connected Student
That's where Level Data come in!
