It has been confirmed that WCPS was NOT affected by this breach. We were able to determine that our firewall prevented access to our system. WCPS also worked with PowerSchool and followed additional guidance to verify that our data was safe.
In response to the evidence showing unrestricted cell phone and addictive social media use are major contributors to the youth mental health crisis in this country by exacerbating issues like depression, anxiety, and self-harm, Governor Youngkin issued Executive Order 43- Empowering and Supporting Parents to Protect Their Children from Addictive Social Media and Establishing the Reclaiming Childhood Task Force.
