Are we supposed to be answering APS Qualtrics every single day?

Maybe this is a dumb question, but I'm unclear.

Yes - I don’t on weekends or Mondays though.

Yes. Does anyone know how many cases of COVID there have been already in APS since school came back in?

you can look on the dashboard https://apsva.co1.qualtrics.com/reports/RC/public/YXBzdmEtNjA0MjliZDQzYTI2NjAwMDBmOWFmN2RmLVVSXzJ6QkpuNWJ5ZXo1bGVGWg==

How many of those hits are a bleary-eyed parent hitting the wrong button?

I don’t get why the email comes every day. Intend to answer just mon - Thursday but APS could clarify things

Yes, the instructions are very specific that you should be answering every day. Think about it, if someone who goes to school Thursday/Friday gets a positive test on Saturday but doesn’t report it until the following Thursday, that’s a lot of lost days that could be spent contact tracing and trying to head off further spread. If too many people don’t answer every day, APS also loses a a lot of potentially valuable data to assess whether covid appears to be spreading in school communities because the data it does get is too limited to be useful.

It’s not that hard to click through the survey each day, and I really don’t get people who screamed about how we needed to do more to get covid under control but then aren’t willing to make the slightest effort to help APS do its part.

I don't think they are a big deal but staff was told not to worry about it on the weekend so I don't fill it out.

You're supposed to but there's no consequence if you don't. I only fill it out on the day the kid goes.

Because any "data" they collect is fairly useless.

It’s useless because of people like you. Congratulations.

Thank you! I appreciate the congratulations.

It's pandemic theater. You do realize people are just clicking no. If your kid was really feeling sick would you really send them to school? If so there are bigger issues than a useless checklist. It's more a CYA checklist.

If people were completing it honestly and consistently, it would be a useful tool. The only reason it's "pandemic theater" is because of people who don't take it seriously.

There appear to be high caseloads at a few schools with TJMS even quarantining several classrooms due to positive case(s). Should we assume that the numbers are even higher than what is being reported? If so, that's pretty concerning.

My kid is all virtual. I'm not filling it out.
