PLEASE NOTE: Positive case reporting by the Elko County School District (ECSD) does not mean that individuals contracted COVID-19 in an ECSD school or building, at an ECSD sponsored activity, or while using ECSD transportation.

ECSD is monitoring the health of students and staff and publicly sharing information regarding active COVID-19 cases present in our district. Proactive reporting is part of our commitment to the community.

If it is determined that exposure to a student or employee who has tested positive meets the requirements for precautionary quarantine, families and staff will be immediately advised. Precautionary quarantine does not mean that the quarantined individuals are or will become sick. Precautionary quarantine is an ECSD practice intended to ensure the safety of people who have been in close contact with an active case of COVID-19.

The listing of multiple active cases does not constitute an outbreak. An “outbreak” is defined as two or more laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 cases among students or staff, with onsets within a 14-day period, who are epidemiologically linked, do not share a household, and were not identified as close contacts of each other in another setting during standard care investigation or contact tracing.
