Santa Cruz City Schools COVID Dashboard
Santa Cruz City Schools is tracking employees and students who test positive for COVID-19 and have been physically present on our school/district facilities. The table below references confirmed positive cases. An exposure is someone who was a close contact to a confirmed positive COVID-19 case on our school/district facilities. A close contact is defined as someone who was within six feet of an infected person for a cumulative total of 15 minutes or more over a 24 hour period. If any of the exposures result in a positive COVID-19 case on the district/school facilities, this will be represented in the In-School Transmission columns.
Our district follows strict social distancing and other safety protocols in accordance with the California Department of Public Health guidelines to minimize the spread of the virus.
