Rutherford County Schools COVID-19 Data Dashboard (21-22)

RCS COVID & Quarantine Dashboard

Each Monday, Rutherford County Schools will post weekly summaries of the number of positive COVID-19 cases within schools and the number of those who were on quarantine during the prior week.

The dashboard includes the total number of new positive COVID-19 cases and quarantines reported each week for employees and students and a school-by-school breakdown. Please note, school level information is only reported if the school has five or more cases because of health privacy requirements, but all cases are included in the district total.

For information about our COVID-19 procedures and Frequently Asked Questions, please visit THIS PAGE.

Note: Beginning in January 2022, the Tennessee Department of Health will only publish weekly totals each Wednesday.

*IMPORTANT UPDATE TO STUDENT QUARANTINE REPORT

The school district was previously posting the average number of student quarantine absences for each week using an attendance report generated by our Skyward software. This method was inadvertently causing some to think the district was underreporting numbers because they did not understand it was a five-day average.

However, the school district has developed a new reporting method from Skyward that now lists the total number of students each week who missed at least one day during the five-day school week for being either temporarily quarantined or for testing positive with COVID-19. This total should not be interpreted as a total number of students who missed school all five days of a school week, because quarantine periods vary based on the specifics. Some students may miss only one day, for example, while determining whether any symptoms they have are actually being caused by COVID-19. Or, as another example, a student may be in quarantine for up to 16 days if they are identified as a household contact to a positive case.

So again, the total for each school should only reflect the number of students who missed at least one day of school during the week because of some type of COVID-related quarantine and should NOT be interpreted as the number of students who missed the entire school week.
