The Michigan Department of Education (MDE) has contracted with SAS to provide value-added reports for your district or public school academy. All districts currently receive District and School Value-Added reports and Student Projection reports. Districts and public school academies that wish to receive Teacher Value-Added reports must provide student-teacher linkages through the Michigan Data Hub (MiDataHub). If your district or public school academy did not opt in with the MiDataHub to receive teacher reports in 2018, but would like to receive them in addition to the standard reports in 2019, click

and follow the steps listed below the integration steps to begin the process.
Submitting these student-teacher linkages will allow SAS to provide individual teacher reporting to your district or public school academy. This reporting includes diagnostic information as well as useful, reliable measures of the academic growth that a teacher's students made, on average, in the selected grade and subject or course. This data can help educators reflect on past practices and proactively plan for current and future classes. In addition, teacher accounts will be created for all teachers receiving reports based on information from the MiDataHub.
If your district or public school academy has previously opted in, you do not need to complete the process again. It will, however, be necessary to verify that the 2018-19 data for your district or public school academy is integrated with MiDataHub by December 6, 2019. The procedures to verify that your district’s or public school academy’s data is integrated with MiDataHub may be found under the Documentation links header on the MiDataHub link above.
