Salina Catholic Schools families, please see the message from Superintendent Geoff Andrews regarding the recent Power School Data Breach:
--
Dear Parents,
I am writing to inform you of a cybersecurity incident involving PowerSchool, the student information system used by our schools. On December 28, 2024, PowerSchool became aware of unauthorized access to certain data through its customer support portal, PowerSource. The company’s investigation determined that a compromised credential was used to access some PowerSchool SIS (Student Information System) customer data.
PowerSchool has assured us that this incident was limited to their SIS product, and other PowerSchool services remain unaffected. As soon as the incident was identified, PowerSchool engaged cybersecurity experts, restricted access to the affected portal, reset passwords, and informed law enforcement.
While there is no evidence of continued unauthorized activity, and the incident is now contained, PowerSchool is committed to providing transparency and support.
We take the security of your child’s information seriously. Although there is no further action required from parents at this time, please feel free to reach out to our diocesan office if you have any questions or concerns.
Thank you for your understanding and continued trust in our schools.
Sincerely,
Geoff Andrews
Superintendent of Schools
Catholic Schools of the Salina Diocese

LNL Families,
We are pleased to announce that we have successfully progressed in the licensing process
without the need for any adjustments to the fire marshal’s referral. This development is a great
relief!
The local licensing specialist submitted all required paperwork to the state on December 3, 2024. We are now awaiting the state’s issuance of our license. Once the license is granted, we will be able to officially launch our preschool and pre-K programs!
It was a pleasure to meet our preschool and pre-K students during the recent "Meet the Teacher" night. The presence of your family in our building truly energized our staff. They
cannot wait to work with your children!
As our opening date approaches, we are continuing our search for qualified staff for our
toddler and infant programs. We kindly ask for your continued prayers that compassionate
individuals will join our team, enabling us to open these classrooms.
We eagerly anticipate sharing additional updates, including our official opening date, in
the near future, and extend our heartfelt wishes for a blessed Advent season to you and your
family.


This GivingTuesday, we're thrilled to share that we're over halfway to our goal for the Raising Saints Annual Fund! 🙌
Your generous support is making a huge difference in our community, helping us to grow the body, mind, and spirit of our students at LNL, SMGS, and SH! 🌟 Every donation counts, and together, we can reach our goal!
