UPDATE: The PowerSchool breach mentioned in this letter was not isolated to our district but part of a nationwide incident affecting multiple school districts across Alaska and other states that used their hosting services. While we are monitoring the situation closely, PowerSchool is conducting a thorough investigation to assess the scope and impact and will provide an update once their investigation is finished.
PowerSchool has committed to providing identity protection and monitoring services as needed. BSSD has notified our cyber insurance and district leadership and it is important to note that this data breach did not occur because of action or lack of action by any of the employees of Bering Strait School District. This data breach occurred through the support tools that PowerSchool (the company) uses to assist districts when they call in for technical support.
Please read the attached letter regarding the recent cybersecurity incident involving PowerSchool, a software vendor which provides our Student Information System (SIS).
