Dear MCA Families,
We are reaching out to inform you about a recent cybersecurity incident involving PowerSchool, the provider of our Student Information System (SIS).
What Happened...
On December 28, 2024, PowerSchool became aware of a potential cybersecurity incident involving unauthorized access to certain information in the SIS platform. Based upon their initial investigation, PowerSchool notified our leadership team on January 7, 2025, of this unauthorized access and that this incident involves unauthorized access to their data systems on a national scale, that the breach has been contained, and law enforcement has been informed about the breach. Unfortunately, PowerSchool has confirmed that this incident included information belonging to some Montague Charter Academy families and educators.
Please read the Data Breach Letter attached in this page.
