UPDATE: 6 Schools on Distance Learning, COVID-19 Dashboard Active

Dec 09, 2020 at 09:50 am by WGNS


Late last month on November 30th,  Rutherford County Schools launched its own dashboard to report COVID-19 school information.

Parents can now find information about which schools are on temporary distance-learning to allow quarantines to clear, the number of reported positive cases and quarantines, and the community spread rate information.

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.
