Kent ISD COVID-19 - School & Regional Student Programs Dashboards - Frequently Asked Questions

The Kent ISD COVID-19 - School & Regional Student Programs Dashboards provide parents, educators and the general public transparency on school-associated COVID-19 cases for our public, nonpublic and regional student programs.

Data on the Kent ISD COVID-19 Dashboards is provided through a partnership with the Kent County Health Department (KCHD) and Kent ISD-area schools. Kent ISD-area districts are required to submit COVID-19 case data to the Kent County Health Department (KCHD) as directed by the Michigan’s Communicable Disease Public Health Code.

Kent ISD is not responsible for the collection of COVID-19 numbers regionwide. Kent ISD’s primary role is to host, maintain and update the Kent ISD COVID-19 Dashboards through data collected by KCHD.

Beginning the week of February 7, 2022, the Kent ISD COVID-19 - School Dashboard will only be updated once per week.

Dates on the Kent ISD COVID-19 School Dashboard refer to when the Kent County Health Department receives notice of a case. To adjust date ranges, please refer to the "Time Period" menu item. To adjust the academic year, select the desired "School Year" menu item.

The Kent ISD COVID-19 Dashboards report weekly and cumulative school-associated COVID-19 staff and student cases. 

All public and nonpublic schools and districts located within Kent ISD’s geographic boundaries are included on the Kent ISD COVID-19 - School Dashboard

Regional Kent ISD student program data (e.g. Kent Career Tech Center, Great Start Readiness Program, Kent Innovation High, etc.) is listed separately on the Kent ISD COVID-19 - Regional Student Programs Dashboard.

The map lists cumulative school-associated COVID-19 cases by building or location since the beginning of the given school year. The bar charts list COVID-19 cases by date.
