IMPORTANT NOTIFICATION FROM BCSD NO.101 | MARCH 10, 2025

 

March 10, 2025

Dear Parent/Guardians,

As we previously communicated, PowerSchool – a cloud-based software vendor used by Boundary County School District – recently experienced a cybersecurity incident involving unauthorized access to certain information in the PowerSchool Student Information System (SIS).

 

The information that was accessed was name, contact information, date of birth, limited medical alert, and a few social security numbers (the technology department will personally contact you, if your SSN was compromised).

We are reaching out to share the latest information and next steps that we recently received directly from PowerSchool:

● Identity Protection and Credit Monitoring Services: PowerSchool has engaged Experian, a trusted credit reporting agency, to offer two years of complimentary identity protection services for all students and educators whose information from our PowerSchool SIS was involved. This offer will also include two years of complimentary credit monitoring services for all adultstudents and educators whose information was involved.

● Notifications have started being sent to Individuals Involved: The sender email address is  Ps-sis-incident@mail1.csid.com. The notice includes the identity protection and credit monitoring services offered by Experian.

 

For additional information I encourage you to visit https://www.powerschool.com/security/sis-incident/ for up-to- date information on the cybersecurity incident. Again, thank you for your patience as we work through this incident with PowerSchool.
