MiBlSi Overview

What is MiBLSi...
Michigan’s Integrated Behavior and Learning Support Initiative (MiBLSi) is an initiative through the Michigan Department of Education’s Office of Special Education and Early Intervention Services working in collaboration with the Office of School Improvement.
MiBLSi is in its fourth year and has partnered with more than 250 schools throughout the State of Michigan.

What is MiBLSi...
MiBLSi helps schools create a “culture” where staff teaches academic success and behavior success side-by-side. The program does this by providing professional development that supports school leadership teams:
Monitor student reading and behavior performance
Access dynamic data collection systems that provide staff with performance indicators in reading and behavior that are accurate and timely – for example, the School Wide Information System (SWIS™) and the Dynamic Indicators of Basic Early Literacy Skills (DIBELS™).

What is MiBLSi...
Make decisions based on data
Develop and implement reading and behavior interventions using student performance indicators
Evaluate intervention effectiveness through ongoing data collection and progress monitoring

What is MiBLSi...
Improve reading success
Develop schoolwide instructional and intervention supports
Use research-based interventions connected to the five essential components of a comprehensive reading program: phonemic awareness, phonics, fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension.
