ISBE has issued the following letter regarding this incident, which is being placed in student files to comply with the Family Education Rights & Privacy Act, or FERPA (20 U.S.C. § 1232g; 34 CFR Part 99)
ISBE communicates that no social security numbers or financial account information were impacted because of these data incidents. However, you are welcome to contact their office at (866) 262-6663 or visit their website at www.isbe.net with any questions or for more information.
