The Michigan School Index System is Michigan’s primary school accountability system, providing an overall index value ranging from 0-100 for every Michigan public school school based on student growth, proficiency, graduation rates, English learner progress, attendance rates, advanced coursework completion, postsecondary enrollment, and staffing ratios. Results from the School Index are used to identify schools in need of improvement for the purpose of directing supports. Schools in need of improvement may be identified for one of three support tiers defined by the federal requirements of the Every Student Succeeds Act of 2015 (ESSA). This site contains the links to Michigan School Index reports and resources.
