The Florida School District reported a student security breach Wednesday after some students posted copies of their official class schedules online.
When students at the S.S. Seward Institute received their schedules over the weekend, school officials say some of them shared the schedules online. In addition to classes, the paperwork also had student ID numbers, along with their computer IDs and passwords.
School officials say that only 10 accounts were compromised. The problem was caught quickly, and all 400 students at the school had their computer passwords changed. It does not appear that any student's privacy was affected.
Superintendent Diane Munro says none of the students will be disciplined, but she hopes the incident taught students a lesson that not everything should be shared online.
