WCPS constructs online dashboard to communicate COVID-19 data to the community

The pandemic has increased and intensified the need for transparency as WCPS implements CDC recommended health mitigation strategies to ensure a safe and healthy environment for students and staff. These strategies along with parent and community support have fostered a successful start to the 2020/2021 school year.

In an effort to support students, staff and the citizens of Warren County, WCPS has constructed an online dashboard to communicate COVID-19 data to the community. This Dashboard can be found at www.wcps.k12.va.us.

The Dashboard communicates COVID-19 data which includes the number of students/staff that are quarantined due to having contact with a person who has tested positive for the virus, as well as, the number of students/staff who have contracted the illness. The Dashboard also identifies the school(s) impacted and the operational status.

WCPS continues to work with the Lord Fairfax Health District to ensure the most up-to-date prevention strategies are employed. WCPS will continue to notify individual school staff and parents when a positive COVID-19 case is identified.

Warren County Public Schools has set up a dedicated email address to receive any questions the community might have concerning information on the Dashboard. Current information along with the Dashboard and email address is available at www.wcps.k12.va.us.
