Welcome to the Michigan
Department of Education's School Improvement website. In 2003, the Department
established the Office of School Improvement (OSI) to promote student learning
and achievement by providing statewide leadership, guidance and support over
a wide range of programs that directly impact teaching and learning, school
leadership and continous school improvement.
Since that time, OSI in
conjunction with school improvement specialists and educators across the state
have developed a nationally recognized "School Improvement Framework"
based on current research and best practice to support school and district continuous
improvement efforts. This website is filled with general school improvement
planning tools and information, promising practice, research and links to school
improvement sites across the nation. In addition, on the far left under School
Improvement you will find the names of the Framework's five strands and unique
resources to specifically support each strand.
For additional information
on the Framework, please contact OSI Interim Director Betty Underwood at underwoodb@michigan.gov
or Linda Forward at forwardL@michigan.gov.
