Dear Families:
Yesterday, January 7, 2025, we were informed by PowerSchool, our Student Information System (SIS) platform, that they experienced an international cyber attack at the end of December. This afternoon, our data team was invited to a webinar by PowerSchool to learn more about the situation. We have confirmed that some of our data was accessed. Fortunately, the disclosed information did not include any students’ Social Security Numbers.
Essentially, the data accessed was the student's name, birthdate, address and similar information. The discernable data fields accessed can be found here.
In the webinar, PowerSchool shared their corrective actions and confidence that there is no further threat to the data.
While there is no indication that student passwords were compromised, we will supplement our daily monitoring system by providing students with new passwords in the next few days.
We have worked extensively to ensure security in our data systems, such as implementing a Multi-Factor Authentication process, geographic restrictions, suspicious login protections and other security measures. It is unfortunate that, in spite of these efforts, our data was accessed as part of the PowerSchool cyberattack. We will continue to work to ensure our data is secure and will ensure our Student Information System increases security protections.
PowerSchool is monitoring the situation, has engaged a cybersecurity remediation company to prevent future incidents, and will provide our staff with updates for our community. For questions related to PowerSchool’s security procedures, please visit PowerSchool’s website or email Security [at] PowerSchool.com.

Dear Parents and Guardians,
As we approach the winter break, we want to take a moment to wish you and your family a wonderful holiday season. This is a special time of year, and we hope it brings you opportunities to create happy memories together.
We also want to express our gratitude for your ongoing partnership in your child’s education. We greatly appreciate all of your efforts in ensuring your child has attended school as much as possible so far this year.
We understand that families sometimes wish to extend their time together by planning vacations that last longer than the dates assigned to the school break. While we fully appreciate the value of family time, we want to encourage you to limit trips and vacations to the days indicated on the school calendar for the break. By doing so, you help your child stay on track academically and ensure they don’t miss out on valuable learning opportunities.
Thank you for being mindful of this and for continuing to prioritize your child’s attendance and education.
Wishing you a safe and happy winter break, and we look forward to seeing everyone refreshed and ready to learn in the new year!
Warm regards,
Dr. Shelly Viramontez
Superintendent
