Lead Testing in School Drinking Water Buildings with Lead-Free Plumbing: Compliance Year 2016
health.data.ny.gov | Last Updated 2020-03-20T20:25:26.000ZList of buildings for each NYS public school and Boards of Cooperative Educational Services (BOCES) reported as being lead-free for Compliance Year 2016. Schools are not required to test lead-free buildings for lead in drinking water. The definition of a lead-free building is any school building with internal plumbing that meets the new definition of "Lead Free," as defined in section 1417 of the Federal Safe Drinking Water Act. A building can be deemed lead-free if (1) it was built after January 4, 2014, or (2) a NYS licensed professional engineer or architect certifies the building's internal plumping is lead-free. School districts and BOCES are required to report the presence of lead-free buildings for each compliance year to parents, the NYS Department of Health, NY State Education Department, and local health departments.

School Immunization Survey Map (Excluding NYC Public Schools): 2019-2020 School Year
health.data.ny.gov | Last Updated 2023-11-15T22:29:18.000ZThe map shows the addresses of all NYS schools, excluding NYC public schools. The address listed for the schools may be the physical location of the school, a school district address, or an administrative address. Each school is color coded according to the percentage of enrolled students in the current school year that were fully immunized. A flyout with specific information about a school will appear when you hover over a point on the map. More than one school may appear as a single point on the map if the school’s have the same geocoded location. In those cases, a next button will appear within the flyout. To view the immunization data for each school, click next in the flyout. The School Immunization Survey collects aggregate data from schools in New York State regarding the immunization status of all the students attending school. All schools, excluding New York City public schools, have reported the immunization status of all students in grades kindergarten through 12. When a school submits the survey data, it is a snap shot of the immunization status of the students at the time the survey is completed. New York City public schools report the immunization status of all students via the Automate the Schools system (ATS). The New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene provides the aggregate data by district to the New York State Department of Health.

Student Weight Status Category Reporting System: 2008-2010
health.data.ny.gov | Last Updated 2019-01-04T20:38:16.000Z<b>Note: This dataset is no longer updated. Refer to the dataset in the featured content.</b> The Student Weight Status Category Reporting System (SWSCR) collects weight status category data (underweight, healthy weight, overweight or obese, based on BMI-for-age percentile) at school entry (pre-kindergarten or kindergarten) and in grades 2, 4, 7 and 10 for students attending all public schools outside of the five boroughs of New York City. Because of restrictions in reporting due to the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) there was wide variation in how much of the student population was represented in the data schools submitted during 2008-2010. Therefore the percentage of the student population represented in the county-level estimates varies from county to county. This limits researchers' ability to draw absolute conclusions about observed differences in student weight status among counties.

Deer Tick Surveillance: Nymphs (May to Sept) excluding Powassan virus: Beginning 2008
health.data.ny.gov | Last Updated 2024-05-01T18:07:53.000ZThis dataset provides the results from collecting and testing nymph deer ticks, also known as blacklegged ticks, or by their scientific name <i>Ixodes scapularis</i>. Collection and testing take place across New York State (excluding New York City) from May to September, when nymph deer ticks are most commonly seen. Nymph deer ticks are individually tested for different bacteria and parasites, which includes the bacteria responsible for Lyme disease. These data should simply be used to educate people that there is a risk of coming in contact with ticks and tick-borne diseases. These data only provide nymph tick infections at a precise location and at one point in time. Both measures, tick population density and percentage, of ticks infected with the specified bacteria or parasite can vary greatly within a very small area and within a county. These data should not be used to broadly predict disease risk for a county. Further below on this page you can find links to tick prevention tips, a video on how to safely remove a tick, and more datasets with tick testing results. Interactive charts and maps provide an easier way to view the data.

Childhood Blood Lead Testing and Incidence of Blood Lead Levels of 10 mcg/dL or Greater by County Map: 2012
health.data.ny.gov | Last Updated 2022-03-08T19:27:45.000ZThis map shows the percentage of children that reside in each New York State county, excluding New York City, who were tested for lead and identified for the first time within the specified time period to have elevated concentrations of lead in their blood. An elevated blood lead concentration of ≥ 10 mcg/dL is defined by the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention as the level requiring public health intervention. Under current NYS Public Health Law and implementing regulations, health care providers are required to test all children for lead at or around age one year and again at or around age two years. Health care providers are also required to assess all children age six months to 72 months of age at least once annually for lead exposure, with blood lead testing for all children found to be at risk, based on those assessments.

Creating Healthy Places Child Focused Interventions and Student Weight Status County Map
health.data.ny.gov | Last Updated 2024-08-08T19:47:35.000ZThis layered map shows the locations of Creating Healthy Places interventions that are targeted towards children and the percentage of students (elementary, middle, and high school) who are obese (95th percentile or higher) by county (source: Student Weight Status Category Reporting System). The purpose of the Creating Healthy Places initiative is to implement community level interventions to promote healthy lifestyles to prevent obesity and type 2 diabetes. The lighter shaded counties have a lower percentage of obese students. The darker shaded counties have a higher percentage of obese students. This map can help identify areas that could benefit from more community level and school level interventions like the ones implemented through the Creating Healthy Places Initiative.
