Canceled: February 2025 Meeting
Greetings Collaborative Partners Colleagues:
We do hope that your new year is progressing positively. This message is to inform you that our Collaborative Partners Meeting scheduled for February 18, 2025, is canceled.
As we have previously shared, there was limited participant feedback and information received following our September meeting to help inform the preparation of relevant presentation topics and collegial conversations for February. With the recent release of USED new non-regulatory guidance on several topics, we are working to unpack these documents and reflect upon any updates, guidance, and information that will further enhance our collective work efforts to support our schools and districts. Any MDE updates on this new guidance will be shared at subsequent meetings.
With that in mind, if you have not already done so, we invite you to sign-up to join us for our next meeting on May 15, 2025. This is a hybrid meeting, but we are hoping that as many as possible will be able to join us in person, in Lansing, on that day.

Additionally, in advance, we are requesting that you look for and make every effort to respond to a Collaborative Partners May 2025 Agenda Survey that will be sent in March. We will use your responses to help inform and guide our planning for the May 15th gathering. Certainly, if you have any thoughts that you think would be helpful for us to know as we think about the next meeting or about services in-between, please reach out to us at, MDE-SSOS@michigan.gov.
Finally, our friends at the MiMTSS TA Center have asked that we share with you a few reminders regarding their up-coming events. Please feel free to share the MiMTSS TA Center information below, with your district teams as you believe relevant.
The MiMTSS TA Center is actively working on ways to better support and serve schools and districts with the highest needs around the state. Our professional learning offerings are always available via the Upcoming and Current Professional Learning page on our website, which any educator in Michigan can attend. We have several events happening in the spring/summer and want to give CSI-identified and Partnership District sites priority registration before sharing them with others. Please see the attached flyers for additional details and information. Each of these events is FREE to attend. You can also stay connected with us about future events and opportunities by signing up for our listserv.
We look forward to seeing and sharing with you in May.
