Dr. Sue Carnell - Chief Deputy Superintendent | Michigan Department of Education
Michigan's 2025 performance data for students eligible for special education services are now available under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act. This data release, effective Thursday, May 22, provides insight into results and compliance indicators in the State Performance Plan/Annual Performance Report for children and students ages 3-21 eligible for special education services. Key reporting areas include graduation rates, dropout statistics, statewide assessments, and parent involvement.
State Superintendent Dr. Michael F. Rice emphasized the importance of accessibility to high-quality instruction for all students. "A guiding principle of Michigan’s Top 10 Strategic Education Plan is that all students have access to high-quality instruction regardless of their gender, sexual orientation, ethnicity, race, economic status, native language, or physical, emotional, and cognitive abilities," he stated. "Sharing these data aligns with that important principle."
Local education agency data can be accessed at Michigan School Data Summary. Links to the MI School Data Portal are available through the Michigan Department of Education website under Special Education (Michigan.gov). For those who prefer a paper copy of the report, they can contact their local school district office of special education.
