This dashboard has been developed to provide the Tucson Unified community with a transparent summary of active COVID-19 cases. Data is updated each school day for Staff and Students.
A Student/ Staff case indicates that the individual has tested positive for COVID-19 and was present on a TUSD Campus, Learning space, or facility before testing positive. Individuals who test positive or report a positive test are excluded from participation in any in-person/on-campus activity until Health Services verifies that the individual meets the return criteria set by state and local health authorities.
When a positive case is reported to TUSD it must be reported to the Pima County Health Department. After the positive case has been reported to the county, the following takes place:
- The school will notify individuals that have been identified to have been in “close contact” with the positive individual. Close contact is defined as less than six feet (adults) or three feet (students), for more than 15 minutes within 24 hours.
- TUSD will follow the isolation and quarantine guidelines provided by CDC and Pima County Health Department (PCHD).
- The Pima County Health Dept. (PCHD) COVID Close Contact notification letter will be sent to any identified individuals at the school/TUSD facility.

- The data below reflects only reported cases and will be updated each school day for the prior instructional day.
- If an individual was not on campus during their infectious period and has not exposed anyone on campus, then the number is not reflected on the dashboard.
- Due to federal laws that protect the privacy of individuals, we are unable to share any personally identifying information about who has tested positive.
