COVID-19 Dashboard

In an effort to provide transparency regarding Boulder Valley School District's COVID-19 cases, we have built a dashboard that includes data regarding BVSD's cases and letters sent to school communities.

It is important to note that students or staff included in a quarantine are being excluded as a precautionary measure.

Notification Process

Notification Process

Step 1: Based on symptoms or contacts, the school health team talks to the family or staff member to determine if there is a probable case or contact with a positive case.

Step 2: In collaboration with public health, the individual will be asked to stay home until isolation is over (10 days) or until their quarantine period is complete.

Step 3: Anyone identified as a contact of the positive individual will be notified and instructed to stay home for 10 days after the last exposure.

Step 4: After all contacts have been notified, a blanket notification is sent to the school community (staff and families) to be aware.

Step 5: The notification letter will be posted on the BVSD website dashboard page.

Active Cases

Active Cases: Active Cases include all cases that result in quarantines. This may include positive cases, probable cases and cases that are symptomatic and possibly awaiting test results.

Case Numbers: Not all COVID cases in staff or students will be reported on this dashboard. They will only be reported if they result in school quarantines, or if the individual was in the building during the infectious period even if no quarantines resulted.

Quarantine Numbers: The quarantine numbers below are only those due to exposures in school, not due to exposures outside of school.

Complete numbers of COVID cases in the community are indicated in the counties' numbers.

Inactive Cases: Cases in which the quarantine period has ended. Inactive Cases numbers do not includes cases where an individual was symptomatic and then tested negative.

All letters sent can be viewed on this page.

BVSD Response to Cases

BVSD Response to COVID cases

	Definition	How we respond
Single Confirmed Case	Confirmed with PCR test	Confirmed case isolates and the Classroom/Cohort is excluded (Quarantined for 10 days)
Cohort/Staff Confirmed Outbreak	Two or more confirmed cases from separate households within 14 days	Confirmed cases isolate and all students and staff in classrooms/cohorts are excluded and quarantined for 10 days If outbreak and exposures are limited to one classroom or two classrooms, school closure not necessary.
Suspected Outbreak	One confirmed + more sick within 14 days OR single case in multiple classrooms OR 10% absenteeism in school	All confirmed cases isolate at home (10 days) - close contacts quarantine 10 days and we work with public health to determine next steps.
Confirmed School Outbreak	Three or more outbreak classrooms/cohorts	Confirmed cases isolate and all students and staff in classrooms/cohorts are excluded and quarantined for 10 days Consider school closure for up to 10 days

Cohorts

A student's cohort is a limited group of students that they interact with. This makes contact tracing and quarantining easier and limited.

Elementary: A student's main cohort is their in-person class. A student may also have a bus cohort, child care cohort, and small group cohort.
Secondary: A student will have a number of cohorts that matches their number of classes.
