  14. Challenges in this Work • We are still in a time of rapid change and new initiatives. • The stakes are increasing for Michigan’s educational institutions and educators as well. • The need to provide fair metrics for accountability to capture school performance accurately and still maintain transparency. • Aligning your work and our work with new and existing initiatives from USED, legislature, MDE, etc.
