Active COVID-19 Dashboard
The Burlington Area School District wants to be as transparent as possible about the health of students and staff. This COVID-19 Dashboard will reflect the number of confirmed active COVID-19 cases in our schools for staff and students.
Please promptly report positive cases to Jill Dreger, Director of Health Services. Being back in-person across the district, BASD has returned to the 14-day quarantine guidelines, which the Wisconsin Department of Health considers the safest recommendation.
Total COVID positive since the first day of school (January 4-April 13): 70

Quarantine
If a person is identified as a close contact to a positive COVID-19 case and need to quarantine:
- 14 day quarantine is preferred. The last day of contact with the COVID-19 positive person counts as day 0. Quarantine goes through day 14 and return to school and sports is day 15. Example: Date of Contact is April 1. Return to school and sports is April 16.
COVID-19 Communication
The Burlington Area School District works with the Central Racine County Health Department on each case, contract tracing, and necessary communication.
- Families will only receive an email from BASD with the letter from the CRCHD when a COVID-positive individual was in the school and caused other exposures or there is an exposure that results in quarantine. In other words, if an individual has been on quarantine or out ill, then receives a positive diagnosis but there are no school-related exposures then no letter is sent.
- Families of students will receive an email from Jill Dreger, Director of Health Services, if a student is identified as a close contact and required to quarantine.
- If the number of people needing to quarantine will disrupt in-person learning, families of students will receive an email from their principal or teacher about shifting to virtual learning.
Thank you for doing all you can to keep Burlington schools healthy. Please see the Health Services webpage and the Fall 2020 Health Information page for more details.
