Inclement Weather
The weather for Jan. 3 forecasts rain turning to a mix of ice and snow by early Monday. We will monitor the weather and conditions of roads and sidewalks throughout the night and make a determination about delay or closure as necessary. Those notifications are typically communicated by 5 a.m.

Reporting Positive Cases
If any student or staff member tests positive for COVID-19, please report it to MCPS using this form. This is the same process used during winter break to collect information on students or staff members who tested positive. Beginning Monday, Jan. 3, you may also call your school if you are not able to submit the information electronically.

Data Reporting
Through 10 p.m. on Saturday, Jan. 1,[b] there have been 3,686 positive cases reported among students and staff in MCPS during winter break.[/b] The number of cases in the school system over the last several weeks has increased significantly in line with trends across Maryland and the United States. As shared in our Dec. 30 community update, we are taking a number of measures to keep students and staff safe.

You can view the number of positive cases over winter break at each school at this link. Schools will not send community letters regarding cases reported during winter break. Beginning Monday, Jan. 3, a list of the number of positive cases reported at each school site that day will be reported at the top of the COVID-19 Dashboard website by 7 p.m. each school day. The dashboard will continue to report data on total positive cases and quarantines on a weekly basis.[/quote]
