With the December 19 deadline quickly approaching to have all your Benchmark Assessment data for the fall reporting period published to MiDataHub, now is the perfect time to log in to your ODS and run the Feature – Benchmark Assessment Legislation report.


When reviewing your data on this screen:


  • ✅ Make sure at least one approved assessment is showing data.
  • ✅ Check that Mode of Instruction includes numbers.
  • 🚫 Confirm there are no red X’s on the report.


If you’d like MiDataHub to run the Mode of Instruction script to mark all students as Fully In Person, please submit a ticket at www.miservicedesk.com.

(Note: This request must be made each year if you are not publishing Mode of Instruction directly from your SIS.)


As always, if you have any questions or need assistance verifying your data, our team is happy to help—just open a support ticket at www.miservicedesk.com.

Join Our Monthly SIS Status Calls

The monthly status calls with our Student Information System (SIS) partners continue to be a valuable opportunity for districts to stay informed, share feedback, and collaborate with MiDataHub and SIS vendors. We strongly encourage districts to participate and stay engaged throughout the year.


Basecamp serves as the central space for communication and collaboration with each SIS workgroup. This is also where you’ll find meeting agendas, calendar invitations, discussion threads, and shared resources.


If you are not currently part of the SIS Status Meetings Basecamp group and would like to participate, please submit a ticket through MiServiceDesk to request access.


Meeting agendas and calendar invitations are available directly within the Basecamp group once you are added.
