NOLA Public Schools Offers Support to Public Schools Amid Statewide Cyber Attacks

In a communication to school community members yesterday, the Morris Jeff school administration stated:

“Yesterday, a single user on a single device experienced a security breach which was quickly isolated. No student information was compromised. Our network technicians are assessing our network, making adjustments, and will reboot our systems in phases. Internet on campus is temporarily disabled. Staff email access and campus phone service will be intermittent. Our team is working quickly to bring all systems back up to speed as quickly as possible.”

As a precautionary measure, the NOLA-PS Administration continues to be in close communication with the affected school and all schools. The school district has procedures in place to monitor any suspicious activity and protect its Central Office systems.
