SAS® EVAAS uses teacher and student information in files from the Michigan Data Hub to:

• Provide districts with student and/or teacher reporting based on state summative assessments
• Where sufficient data exists, provide districts with student and/or teacher reporting based on additional assessments administered by districts
• Create user accounts for teachers
• Update student enrollment for student reports

To opt in for teacher reports and student enrollment updates,districts will need to integrate their Student Information System with MiDataHub and publish over the student-teacher linkages from the most recent testing year and its student enrollment data for the current academic year. EVAAS will send updates to EVAAS district admins about due dates and other important information.

EVAAS provides teacher reporting and student enrollment updates for future years unless the district opts out. Contact Michigan Data Hub for information about opting out.

SAS EVAAS MiDataHub Data Configuration Guide and Requirements

This guide contains detailed instructions on how to complete the opt-in process, provides information on the data required for EVAAS teacher reporting, and includes directions on how to verify that the data required for EVAAS teacher reporting is populated in Michigan Data Hub (MiDataHub) as expected.

SAS EVAAS Readiness Script: The SAS EVAAS Readiness Script was designed to identify a district’s readiness level to receive teacher reporting. It includes a series of data validation checks to provide information around data missingness for a district to determine potential areas to address with their SIS vendor and MiDataHub.

 A video walkthrough on using the SAS EVAAS Readiness Script can be found here. (Please note, the tutorial in this video uses 2018-2019 ODS year for demonstration only. Districts should use the most recent completed school year’s ODS when running this script.)
