HIDOE COVID-19 Information and Updates

This resource page provides weekly updates to the public on confirmed COVID-19 cases in the HIDOE system.

News release from Hawaii DoE, August 14, 2020

Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, the health and safety of our students, employees and school communities remains one of our highest priorities.

Along with internal guidelines, the Department's Health & Safety Handbook provides overall direction to schools and offices, including guidance on safety protocols, cleaning and sanitation procedures, and notification steps.

This resource page provides weekly updates to the public on confirmed COVID-19 cases in the HIDOE system. Case counts will be reported weekly by complex area (groups of adjacent high schools and their feeder elementary and middle schools), along with a running statewide total.

Cases for the week of Aug. 8-14, 2020

Cases below have been confirmed. In some situations, cases are reported to the Department by an individual, pending documentation of the positive result. This does not stop HIDOE's response, and notification may go out to the school community out of an abundance of caution before the confirmation is received. Cases currently being investigated are not included in the count.

Positive cases for the week of Aug. 8-14 include six employees at six schools. All campuses were sanitized and notification went out to staff in all cases. In two of the recent cases, parent notification went out as well in anticipation of school visits from families to pick up materials.

HIDOE cumulative statewide total to-date (June 26-Aug. 14, 2020): 15
