Committee members were told districts will largely stop sending the current school year’s data around mid-June to perform local system rollover and will resume reporting new school-year data around mid-August to allow schedules and early enrollment to stabilize. The committee heard the state will continue to keep MSIS available for reporting and to retrieve MSIS IDs while local systems perform rollovers.

The chair noted that the state and vendors are still developing historical-reporting features such as student profiles that show enrollment, assessment, discipline and attendance histories; these features and improvements are planned through the summer while the system finishes its first full year of certification.

The committee’s course-code work group reported recent updates to the online course-code listing for the 2025–26 school year, including which course codes are new, modified or deactivated. The work group said it is updating grade-span fields so courses that can be taken in grades 7–12 display that range and that AP courses will be reflected with a 9–12 grade span after districts raised flags.

The data-sharing agreement work group reported three executed or extended agreements since the committee’s last meeting in February: ACT and ACT WorkKeys (state testing/work-keys exchanges), a new agreement with the National Center for the Improvement of Educational Assessment to evaluate and validate student assessment and accountability systems, and an extension with the National Student Clearinghouse.

Committee members were invited to contact Office of Technology and Student Support (OTSS) staff with questions about accessing MSIS or for guidance on what MSIS contains.

The items were reported as operational updates; the meeting record shows no additional formal motions relating to these items beyond routine approvals of minutes, agenda and future meeting dates.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Data Governance Committee - May 16, 2025","oneSentenceSummary","May 16, 2025 — At its meeting in Jackson, the Data Governance Committee reported that MSIS 2 is entering its final month of district certification and discussed scheduling and reporting expectations for end-of-year rollover and next-school-year reporting.","taxTitle","Department of Education, Agencies, Organizations, Executive, Mississippi","taxId",55201,"location","Mississippi","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":77,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":78,"_41":79,"_43":80,"_45":81,"_47":82,"_49":83,"_51":84,"_53":85,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":86,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":87,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6238385,"State staff demonstrate TIMS 2 to track textbook adoptions, vendors and curriculum-linked professional learning",368,1012000,1380000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3352695-358985e3e6c9da3f2573d28ce8e22780&start=1012&end=1380","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3352695-358985e3e6c9da3f2573d28ce8e22780/thumbnail_1012000.jpg","/articles/6238385/Mississippi/State-staff-demonstrate-TIMS-2-to-track-textbook-adoptions-vendors-and-curriculum-linked-professional-learning","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6238385-73fb29d0507d42397262689354883af3/orig.mp4?Expires=1770955413&Signature=njNu3hgmkYKLw~YUzvR6gXmnB~uqslZz3uyFFnQHO4M0dPsCORLUPRwlsRdAwnFh4TrVfxeYZ2wokSa03hfvWbmI3OAKiVb-zC7~DV8XoMdo0qqjf-DIniOAWgQcyyJnn9WosMZxHlJtrbw4w0q6nBSz4yWsg-A-esuUD5AO3xUiHRjajvXYogF27DnOaTSniaaKSQwEyV6VdkmDlc09lxhTqSoC6Hl-XsKRpPDFGsWgc8lBJUbrpQ~63vyXwDrgCL63j6c3w-DDpKBwC8OfdGGRjn00i40rDtN5WdIwolzyvffLK~xtrx4GDdhQdftguVKrWtAd4zTKO9pKsNGAHQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","May 16, 2025 — Data Governance Committee members received a demonstration of TIMS 2, the Department’s updated textbook inventory management system and public adoption sample site intended to show what materials and consultant services are adopted and used in classrooms.

A textbook coordinator leading the demonstration said the new TIMS will allow districts, the state and community members to see real-time adoption information, vendor details and a catalog of curriculum-based professional learning (CBPL). “So with TIMS 2 ... we’re gonna be able to compare the purchased ... academic interventions, as well as our curriculum based professional learning against our assessments. So now we can start putting dollars to our test scores,” the coordinator said, describing the system’s intent to link spending and professional learning to assessment results.

The presenter reviewed limitations of the older TIMS (an in-house Oracle system) and said TIMS 2 was developed after the Jackson depository closed in 2021. The new site includes an adoption sample site that community members can access to view adopted materials across early childhood, elementary, secondary and CTE programs; the presenter said the feature was added after public confusion about the “Wit and Wisdom” curriculum.

The coordinator described plans to add a vetted catalog of external consultants and to use a selection process similar to textbook adoption: a call for submissions, internal review and then listing selected vendors under non-cost contracts so districts can purchase or request services through the catalog. The presenter said the state will work with other offices (cited as John Farrell’s office) to compare adoption and training data with assessments in specific districts (the presenter named Humphreys, Yazoo City, Knoxville and Holmes County as examples) to begin measuring return on investment.

The demonstration highlighted several practical effects for districts: real-time visibility into what is in classrooms, the ability to compare vendors and curricula across districts and a mechanism to record curriculum-linked professional learning tied to specific adopted programs. The presenter noted textbook costs can range from about $100 to $150 per student and said better tracking can help districts evaluate whether those investments produce measurable gains.

No formal committee action was taken on TIMS 2 during this meeting; the segment was a demonstration and informational update.","Committee members saw a demonstration of TIMS 2, a new textbook inventory and adoption site that gives districts and the public real-time visibility into adopted materials, allows tracking of curriculum-based professional learning (CBPL), and aims to connect curriculum spending to assessment outcomes.",{"_33":89,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":90,"_41":91,"_43":92,"_45":93,"_47":94,"_49":95,"_51":96,"_53":97,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":98,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":99,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6238392,"Data governance committee approves MSIS change to track K–1 dyslexia screening and training",110,844000,954000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3352695-358985e3e6c9da3f2573d28ce8e22780&start=844&end=954","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3352695-358985e3e6c9da3f2573d28ce8e22780/thumbnail_844000.jpg","/articles/6238392/Mississippi/Data-governance-committee-approves-MSIS-change-to-track-K1-dyslexia-screening-and-training","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6238392-0b0ae7133833e711dc6cd071ffe5075d/orig.mp4?Expires=1770955413&Signature=mJrjPgR5ctl9tXJ~KDf~1F-~ox8~zfI5GWIxQPGSEfESi53DTrhazzwlyHov3W3JoF5hfRtCvt0wDK0HIvpvA1-XUD9TKCnqszPcQAxAlg22oRDrwsvDsCnOeKjHIY9ldhnirSqw1a~ouexD4pqb3rB4ZktYHb6CjCgHta8RqoX0~KQxIDCQb2sOAE77K1dBqMmFENMJIf6tL52u9CGsBUZzYVkvowp7oDOIfSTtoFVBFw0OpWEyIdA4tbh0E9hH2lNVcgDkMHnKhy19urdzn5J~l4ltfD01Ft~0XZeobRKLFr-4jnzi84WdHvb2~xsXy6-dRszjBzTZYlEUq5hVAQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","May 16, 2025 — The Data Governance Committee approved a change request to add a data-collection page to MSIS 2 for K–1 dyslexia screening results and dyslexia-awareness training implementation.

The addition is intended to help the Office of Elementary Education and Reading monitor how districts administer the K–1 screener and whether required dyslexia training is being completed.

Matthew Sheriff, a staff member with the Office of Elementary Education and Reading, presented the request and said, “The office of elementary education and reading is asking to add a data collection page to MSIS 2 for the K–1 dyslexia screener and dyslexia awareness training. This request is being made to efficiently meet the requirements set forth by, the Mississippi code 371731516.” Sheriff said the new page will capture counts of students who pass or fail the screener and monitor how training is being implemented across LEAs.

After a brief call for questions, a committee member moved to approve the change request and another member seconded. The chair called for a voice vote; committee members responded “Aye” and the motion carried.

Discussion vs. decision: the transcript shows explanation and justification by the presenting staff member, followed by a formal motion and a voice vote that approved the change request. The committee did not adopt any amendments nor set an implementation date in the meeting record.

The change request was described as aligning MSIS reporting with statutory requirements cited during the presentation. The transcript does not specify a rollout timetable for the new MSIS page or which vendor/development schedule will be used; those details were not provided in the recorded discussion.

The committee approved routine procedural items at the same meeting, including minutes, agenda and future meeting dates, but this article focuses on the substantive approval to add the dyslexia screener/training fields to MSIS 2.","The Mississippi Data Governance Committee voted to approve a change request adding a K–1 dyslexia screener and dyslexia-awareness training data collection page to MSIS 2, citing state code language for the requirement and enabling the state to record screener results and training implementation across local education agencies.","actionData","errors"]
