Dear Sayles School Families,

I am writing to notify you that the school district was informed that it was involved in a cybersecurity incident. The breach occurred on or around December 28, 2024 and involved PowerSchool, which is our student and staff information system. PowerSchool is the student and staff information system used by many school systems across the country, including Sayles School.The breach occurred at PowerSchool but information involving our students and teachers was accessed. We have been informed that the information that was accessed included students’ and teachers’ names, addresses, emails, telephone numbers, demographic information, along with the names of parents/guardians. PowerSchool has assured customers that the breach has been contained and that they have taken steps to prevent additional breaches in the future. They also believe that the accessed data has been deleted by the person/people responsible for the breach and that no copies of the data exist.

The Sprague Public School District takes the privacy of our students, families and staff very seriously. PowerSchool will be providing the district with updated information. We will forward to you any pertinent information as it becomes available. If you have any questions about this incident, please do not hesitate to contact me at whull@spraguek12.org.
