State Superintendent Brian Whiston and Michigan Department of Education (MDE) officials began discussions in March of 2016 with 10 school districts to develop the Partnership Agreements with the goal of improving achievement levels at the lowest-performing schools in Michigan. Partnership Agreements will continue to be the primary intervention utilized by the MDE to facilitate improvements in student academic achievement in districts identified as low performing.
