National PowerSchool Incident

January 13, 2025
National PowerSchool Incident

Last week, PowerSchool, an international provider of education administration software, announced that it had suffered a cybersecurity incident in late December. Although security of PowerSchool’s systems has been restored, data pertaining to students and educators at hundreds of school systems around the country were subjected to unauthorized access. The breach was limited to PowerSchool’s internal systems, and security of individual school system networks was not disturbed. Alternative Paths Training School utilizes some PowerSchool tools.

We take the privacy of our students’ and employees’ very seriously and are working with PowerSchool to identify the scope of impact this incident may have had on information pertaining to members of our school community. PowerSchool has assured us that they are investigating this matter and will notify us, and impacted individuals, with the details of information affected. Alternative Paths Training School has not been provided with details of what information was exposed for specific individuals but will continue to work with PowerSchool to thoroughly investigate this matter.
