How Prince William County schools’ data leak impacts students, families

Prince William County schools mistakenly shared student and parent personal information with Hazel Health, a third-party partner of the school division. The division on Dec. 19 sent a notification to the affected families notifying them that on Dec. 16 Hazel Health inadvertently sent a welcome text to families who had not opted into the provider’s service.

Following the mistaken welcome text, the school system discovered it had “unintentionally disclosed” personal identifiable information for those who had not opted into the service, the division said in its statement to the affected families.
