Notice Regarding the PowerSchool Compromise

Seattle Public Schools (SPS) is aware of the cybersecurity incident involving the PowerSchool PowerSource portal. SPS was not impacted. 

Our district’s systems remain secure because administrative account logins and functions that could have been used to steal data require a virtual private network (VPN), providing an additional layer of protection.

SPS takes cybersecurity seriously and continuously works to ensure the safety and integrity of our systems. 

Questions? Contact the SPS cybersecurity team at cybersecurity@seattleschools.org.
