Your input through a quick survey of our Building Administrators (Principals) at BSSD is crucial as we constantly work towards improvements. Your feedback on their leadership is immensely valuable to us. Ensuring that we're serving everyone to the best of our abilities is our priority.
📢 If you're a staff member, we kindly request you to complete one survey from your staff perspective and another from your viewpoint as a parent/community member.
📢 Parents, your insights are highly appreciated! Please take a few moments to share your thoughts through a separate survey focusing on your parental perspective.
📢 Students, your voice matters! You'll have the opportunity to express your opinions by participating in the survey at school.
If you need assistance accessing the survey, don't hesitate to contact a school administrator at your site. Your perspectives play a significant role in our plans for improvement. Thank you for taking the time to provide your valuable insights!

While we are monitoring the situation closely, PowerSchool is conducting a thorough investigation to assess the scope and impact and will provide an update once their investigation is finished.
PowerSchool has committed to providing identity protection and monitoring services as needed. BSSD has notified our cyber insurance and district leadership and it is important to note that this data breach did not occur because of action or lack of action by any of the employees of Bering Strait School District.
