Notice of Cybersecurity Incident

We want to let you know about a recent cybersecurity incident involving PowerSchool, the software we use for our Student Information System (SIS).

On January 7, 2025, PowerSchool informed us that they experienced unauthorized access to some customer data, including contact information like names and addresses for some of our families and educators.  They are still investigating whether any additional information, such as personally identifiable information (PII), was affected. Importantly, social security numbers were not involved,

There is no need to contact the school administration, your student's teacher or the Board of Education Office.  PowerSchool is working quickly to complete their investigation, and we'll share updates as soon as we have more information.  If needed, they will provide resources like credit monitoring or identity protection services to those impacted.

We take student privacy and security very seriously, and we appreciate your understanding as we work through this with PowerSchool.

Family and friends celebrated Mr. Charlie Anderson's 42 years of service on the Clarke County Board of Education on December 10, 2024. Thank you, Mr. Anderson for your commitment and dedication to the students, teachers and staff of the Clarke County Board of Education!

Congratulations to Mr. TaDarius Dukes on earning his National Board Certification!

This prestigious certification is the highest level of professional recognition in education, requiring tremendous dedication and effort.  It is awarded to only the top 4% of educators.

Congratulations to Jackson High School for winning the 4A State Championship in football! The Clarke County Board of Education are PROUD of our AGGIES!
