At about 5:41 p.m. on January 8, 2025, Nash County Public Schools (NCPS) received the attached letter from the NC Department of Public Instruction (NCDPI) about a recent, nationwide, cybersecurity incident involving PowerSchool data. PowerSchool was the statewide Student Information System (SIS) used in our district prior to the 2024-25 school year. On Friday, January 9, 2025, at 8:22 p.m., NCPS received an additional letter from NCDPI confirming that our district's data was accessed by an unauthorized party, and is part of the nationwide PowerSchool data breach. PowerSchool has shared that all data has been contained and destroyed. PowerSchool and NCDPI have stated that “there is nothing that NCDPI or any of our schools could have done to avoid this cybersecurity incident.” PowerSchool will conduct all necessary notifications once the analysis is complete to ensure compliance with local, state, and federal requirements and laws. In the coming days, PowerSchool will notify affected families and staff. NCPS takes the security and confidentiality of our student and staff data very seriously. We will provide additional updates as information becomes available.
