Overview for Michigan
For the 2020-21 school year, the Michigan’s Center for Educational Performance and Information (CEPI) collected monthly district data on learning model and student enrollment by learning model. Michigan’s Department of Health & Human Services collected 2020-21 monthly school-level learning model information for P-EBT purposes. COVID-19 case data for the state’s schools or districts are not currently available. The state had a mask mandate in effect throughout the school year; (through June 1, 2021) this is reflected in the staff and student masking data for all state districts.
