The Blaine school district has a Covid-19 data dashboard on its website to account for people who were at the schools while infected with the virus. The dashboard, which just hit a total of 10 cases, is updated every Monday if there were cases in the previous week, according to the dashboard.
The latest positive case was in the primary school last week. The previous case was in the high school in the week of March 8 to March 12 but was only updated April 12.
The district has had a total of 10 students or staff engaged in in-person learning or work who were on campus during their infectious period, as determined by the state department of health. Four of those students or staff were at the primary school, five were at the middle school and one was at the high school.
The dashboard also distinguishes whether remote learning or quarantine was required for a class or cohort of students following the positive case
detection.
In two of the recorded infection weeks, remote learning or quarantine was enforced on a group of students.
Tina Padilla, administrative assistant to the superintendent, said the school district is not required to report cases and is doing so to be transparent with students, parents and other members of the community.
