Orange County Public Schools has published a dashboard of COVID-19 data from across the district's divisions and 202 schools. The dashboard gives parents, employees and members of the public a comprehensive breakdown of the total number of confirmed cases that have occurred on campus since the start of face-to-face learning on Aug. 21, along with specific data by school and central office division. 

"We continue to work with the Florida Department of Health in Orange County to keep the health and safety of our students and employees our priority," Superintendent Barbara Jenkins said. "This dashboard will serve as the primary source for data and reporting of positive cases and reinforces our commitment to transparency without compromising the medical privacy of any individual." 

Data provided on the dashboard includes the following: 

• Total confirmed cases

• Districtwide cases by day for employee, student and other

• School location or central office division/department by day for employee, student and other.

Starting Wednesday, Sept. 16, the number automatically will update at 11:59 p.m. each evening.

The dashboard is linked from the district's home page at ocps.net.
