Contact Tracing Report

Contact tracing is driven by the schedule and reports on contacts a student or classroom staff member has had with other students and classroom staff.

How does it work?

When run for a student, the report reviews every day in the selected date range that the student was present. It then checks the class roster for all classes for which the student was marked with some type of Present and not marked Absent and lists all other students in the class marked present or not marked absent plus any classroom staff associated with the classes.

When run for a staff member, it looks at every class with which the staff member was associated. It checks the class roster and lists all students marked present or not marked absent plus any classroom staff associated with the classes.

PDF vs. Excel file

The report can be generated as either a PDF or Excel file. Sample PDF Sample Excel

The PDF report lists the name of the student or staff member in contact with the person for whom the report is run, email address, phone number, and number of contacts. For students in contact, it also lists the names of the students’ primary contacts.

On the PDF report for a student, the number of contacts column displays the number of classes the student or staff member had with the student for whom the report is run. For example, a large number such as 7 probably means a student is in same homeroom as the student in question.

If run to Excel, the report lists the specific course sections that the student or staff member had with the student for whom the report is run.
