About the Michigan Education YES! Grades

  • In 2007-2008, Michigan used the Education YES! Grades to measure school performance.
  • Education YES! Grades are based on student performance on the Michigan Educational Assessment Program (MEAP) and Michigan Merit Examination (MME), whether performance is improving or declining, and the school's self-rating on Indicators of School Performance.
  • Schools receive a grade of A, B, C, D-Alert or Unaccredited.
