It showed 131 positive COVID-19 cases for staff for the same districts during the same time period. Below is a list of reported cases by Bexar County school districts since July 27.

SAN ANTONIO Most Bexar County schools are beginning the school year with remote learning, but questions remain about how districts and school systems will report positive student or staff member COVID-19 cases when in-person instruction returns, which could be as soon as Sept. 8. Earlier this month, San Antonio Metro Heath updated its directive that issued guidance on how public, private and other school systems should report any positive COVID-19 cases. Any time we have a positive case at a school, we report it to Metro Health and we send out a letter to that school. NISD spokesperson Barry Perez said the district was still seeking clarification from Metro Health on guidance related to posting positive cases on the districts website. During Tuesday nights COVID-19 briefing, Metro Health Director Dr. Colleen Bridger was asked how the department would enforce schools posting COVID-19 positives on their websites.
