Please review the 8/24/26 MTSS Lead Weekly Updates.
In accordance with TCA 49-1-905, it is required that students in Kindergarten through Grade 5 who fall below the 16th percentile on iReady Inform should receive a copy of the MSCS Home Literacy Report Letter along with the iReady Inform Results Individual Report. It is recommended that any student who falls below the 24th percentile on iReady Inform receive the same information following the fall screener to provide a baseline for where the student is in August against peers.
Questions can be emailed to RTI2@scsk12.org.
As we begin the school year, please review the SEA Guide and ensure SEA responsibilities remain focused on supporting K-2 instruction and student learning. The SEA Guide was previously shared in the August 7 Leaderboard edition and is being shared again as a reminder of role expectations.
Cafeteria Duty: While SEAs may assist with supervision of the grade level or students they directly support, they should not be assigned extended cafeteria monitoring duties that significantly reduce instructional time. SEAs should not be routinely pulled away from their instructional responsibilities to supervise students from other grade levels or serve as primary cafeteria monitors.
Classroom Coverage: We recognize that schools occasionally face staffing challenges and may be unable to secure substitute teachers. In these situations, building-level staff may need to assist. However, SEAs should be utilized for classroom coverage only as a last resort after all other coverage options have been exhausted. Frequent or prolonged classroom coverage assignments can limit a SEA's ability to provide the targeted instructional support students need.
We appreciate your partnership in ensuring SEAs are leveraged as intended to maximize support for K-2 students and teachers. Please review the SEA Guide with relevant staff and keep these expectations in mind when making staffing and scheduling decisions.
Please contact Heba Sammour at sammourh@scsk12.org if you have any questions.
The Department of Curriculum & Instruction would like to make school leaders aware that Specialized Education Assistants (SEAs) began submitting their Weekly Reflection Logs on Friday, August 28, 2026. Moving forward, this will be a required weekly responsibility for all SEAs.
While C & I will send weekly reminders to SEAs, school-level support is essential to ensuring consistent completion. Leaders are encouraged to check in with their SEAs regularly to confirm that weekly submissions are being completed.
Weekly Reflection Log:

The information collected through these logs automatically populates in the district's Power BI dashboard and provides valuable insights into how SEAs are supporting students and teachers across schools. C & I will begin reviewing this data regularly to monitor implementation, identify trends, and ensure alignment with district expectations for SEA utilization.
Thank you for your partnership in supporting the effective implementation of the SEA role and maximizing instructional support for students.
Please feel free to reach out to Heba Sammour at sammourh@scsk12.org if you have any questions.

Important Updates:
- School staff who previously gained access to Power BI via the MSCS Compass Access App or by reaching out directly to DAIM may potentially no longer have access. Principals and APs can still go in and re-add these people to their school’s access.
- School staff with roles that automatically get access to Power BI who are at new locations this year should see their access automatically updated to the new school, as long as their location has also been updated in APECS and Active Directory.
- The DAIM MSCS Compass Monthly Newsletter resumed this month. New editions come out on the second Wednesday of each month. In it, you will find information on new and upcoming releases, trainings, and support resources. It is sent to all staff members with Power BI access. You can also see all archived editions on the DAIM Support Hub.
- As part of the monthly newsletter, we will resume the Empowering Your Data Story usage campaign. Each month, we will use the newsletter to highlight schools with the highest Power BI usage. The school with the highest percentage of Power Users in Elementary, Middle/K-8, and High will receive a certificate. The school with the highest rate overall for the month will receive a trophy. All winners are highlighted on our Hall of Fame page. Click here for more information about the campaign.
- The Rollover Summer Maintenance Process for the 2026-2027 school year has been completed. Dashboards will once again refresh and update regularly. Note that data is updated nightly. So, what you see in the dashboards will reflect the previous day. Please consult the Refresh Schedule on the DAIM Support Hub for more information.
- Due to the transition from i-Ready Diagnostic to i-Ready Inform, the Student Assessment and RTI2-A dashboards will not track or display Fall 2026-27 data. The updated reports will be available for the Winter assessment window. This means that schools will not be able to track completion compliance for i-Ready or RTI Universal Screener/Characteristics of Dyslexia.

With this report, you can track course enrollments in Project Graduation by subject area, course name, teacher, and room. Check out the user guide for more information. Project Graduation information is also available in the Raw Data, District Quick Report, and Student Report pages. Click here to see all user guides for the Student Enrollment dashboard.
Coming Soon:
- Student Attendance will soon include updated at-risk levels for Chronic Absenteeism. This will replace the High, Medium, and Low Risk levels currently available. The new levels will include: Less Than 10 Days Enrolled, Perfect Attendance (attendance rate of 100%), Low Risk (attendance rates of 99.9-95.1%), Medium Risk (95%-90.1%), High Risk (Recovery Possible) (90% or less, but there are enough days in the year left to recover), and High Risk (Recovery Not Possible) (90% or less, and there are not enough days in the year left to recover). This will be available in the Student Attendance dashboard, Student Snapshot, and School Snapshot. The District 360 dashboard will be updated at a later date TBD. For the Student Attendance user guides, click here.
- The Student Discipline dashboard will soon include updated data from the Student Intervention Platform (SIP). This will include the creation of a new Student Intervention Report within the Discipline dashboard, as well as updates to the District Quick Report, Raw Data, and Student Report pages.
