Seattle Public Schools’ Business Intelligence and Health Services teams partnered to design a public-facing dashboard showing confirmed COVID-19 cases at Seattle Public Schools. The dashboard is refreshed weekly on Mondays. To view information specific to Louisa Boren STEM K-8, click to Page 2 as shown in the image below.
Identifying Close Contacts
Seattle Public Schools has employed contact tracers to email and/or call families whose child is in class with another student who tests positive for COVID-19. Communication and quarantine protocols, as well as definition of a close contact can be found on the Seattle Public Schools’ website under health resources. Students who are fully vaccinated are not required to quarantine after a close contact unless they develop symptoms.
Keep Students Home When Sick
Any student showing signs of illness must be kept home until they receive a negative test and for 24 hours after symptoms have improved. Students can get a COVID-19 test at school. You will need to show a paper or electronic copy of the negative test result to school office staff before your child returns after staying home for an illness. Without a negative test, students can return to school10 days after symptoms first appeared, and if symptoms have improved.
Keep a student home if they have any of the following symptoms (unless they are explained by a pre-existing condition, such as asthma):
- Fever (100.4 ̊F / 38 ̊C or higher)
- Cough
- Loss of taste or smell
- Chills
- Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing
- Fatigue
- Headache
- Muscle pain or body aches
- Sore throat
- Congestion or runny nose
- Nausea or vomiting
- Diarrhea
If you have difficulty accessing this dashboard or have questions or concerns, please contact Seattle Public Schools by emailing csh@seattleschools.org.
