Educators, administrators, and local district teams came together for a powerful session of the MTSS Community of Practice: Improving Engagement and Attendance.
The event, hosted by Ingham Intermediate School District, focused on building capacity across the region to better identify early warning signs, strengthen intervention strategies, and foster authentic family engagement. Participants from multiple districts worked collaboratively, sharing insights and identifying opportunities to support students more effectively.
Through small group discussions, role-specific planning, and county-wide resource sharing, teams left with actionable ideas and renewed momentum to support student success.
Why it matters:
Research shows that early engagement and consistent attendance are among the most important predictors of long-term student outcomes. By coming together to align strategies and support systems, districts across Ingham County are amplifying their collective impact—ensuring more students are seen, supported, and set up for success.
This session represents a shared commitment to equity, connection, and community-wide problem-solving—and it’s just the beginning.
Looking ahead, the MTSS Community of Practice will continue working across schools and systems to build a more engaged, responsive, and supportive learning environment for all.
