Here are the Ottawa schools with the highest and lowest absence rates

Ontario started sharing data on Monday about school absences amid Omicron.

The province is no longer publishing information on COVID-19 in schools, but is sharing data on absences online, whether they are related to COVID-19 or not.

The data shared Monday showed Ottawa-Carleton District Board Schools reported an average 24.5 per cent absence rate among students and staff.

However, only 24 of the board’s 142 schools reported absence rates.

The Ottawa Catholic School Board reported an average 13.5 per cent absence rate, among 28 schools.
