This dashboard reflects all positive cases of staff members and students who were present in a District 57 building during the period that they were infectious. The numbers do not account for those who have COVID and were not in the buildings or those who are out due to quarantining after exposure. 

 

- New Positive Cases are the total cases of positive COVID that were in the building during the infectious period. New Positives Cases will be added on the date reported and will remain for 24 hours. After 24 hours, New Positive Cases will be moved to Total Active Cases. 

 

- Total Active Cases are all positive cases that will be considered Active Cases for 14 days. After 14 days, they will be removed from this list.

- Covid-Cluster Definition (A) “multiple cases comprising at least 10% of students, teachers, or staff within a specified core group” or (B) “at least three cases within a specified core group meeting criteria for a probable or confirmed school-associated COVID-19 case with symptom onset or positive test result within 14 days of each other; who were not identified as close contacts of each other in another setting (i.e., household) outside of the school setting; and epidemiologically linked in the school setting or a school-sanctioned extracurricular activity.” (IDPH)
