Banneker middle handed out tests today after initially saying they would send them home tomorrow. So I expect a spike in reports tomorrow or the next day. They haven’t had any reported cases on the daily count the past couple of days, which makes no sense given the giant case numbers at Paint Branch down the street.

As of the last time they were color-coded, Twinbrook was one of 8 "green" schools.

Today, 1 case.
Yesterday, 1 case.
Jan 9, 2 cases.
Jan 8, 1 cases...

This is a school of ~550 students, of which 70% qualify for FARMS and 53% ESOL. I'm sure their low numbers are real and not the result of poor testing access or poor communication by MCPS/school admin.

Greencastle is much the same. Actually...

The 7 last "Green" schools standing as of Jan 6 (?) were (excluding Bradley Hills):

~0-2 cases reported daily, Jan 7-11:
Cresthaven Elementary School
Greencastle Elementary School
Kemp Mill Elementary School
New Hampshire Estates ES
Twinbrook Elementary School

Mixed/moderate numbers Jan 7-11 (very low 3 days, but 2 days around 10 cases each):
Rolling Terrace Elem School

Very high numbers last 2 days (59 total, school of <500 including staff):
East Silver Spring Elem School

Either the ESS community itself is being uniquely responsive post-break or the school has done a better job of outreach... or maybe all these other schools have such scary numbers that the DHHS has some reason to withhold them temporarily? Or most haven't gotten tests? Or most parents are keeping so many kids home they haven't gotten the tests, or...?

It's not that they don't have much COVID, I am pretty sure of that.

I’d like the post how many students have actually reported back test results for each school.
I’ve only done it for one of my three kids. Kid 2 received a defective test and kid 3 did not get a kit because their teacher was out sick.

I think that means there are zero cases there.

It means no reporting. That's different.

Oh for god's sake, let's be pedantic. It means they didn't put it in the table because there are no cases to report. The point is that it's not it was forgotten, they just don't put schools in the table that report zero cases for that day.

4,299 new cases in 48 hours. 441 teachers and 3,858 students.

And January 10th link is only available to those of us who saved it since those numbers are no longer there on mcps dashboard to horrify parents. Honest error, naturally.

Link doesn’t work?

I don't know why DCUM is "cutting off" the .pdf part as a link, but it's a link.

Literally highlight the WHOLE thing, copy and paste in your browser.

Or maybe this will work if I put it in a nicer-looking link.

Lakelands Park MS has 10 teachers out in just 48 hours.

Hopefully this works

Eyeballing it, it's double-digit additions for more than half of schools, but not as many as I'd guessed. Some with big numbers after big numbers yesterday, like ESS (32 + 27, school has 400-ish students) and all the Gaithersburgs.

Blair added 72 after 29 yesterday, and Paint Branch 56 after 93 yesterday, but no triple-digit numbers just from today.

How are you seeing this? I get an error message

You can access it by just going to the mcps home page, click in covid updates, it lists the daily totals.

Big jumps at all the high school. It ain't great.
