This morning GSCS IT detected attempted suspicious activity from accounts outside our network. As a preventative precaution, the IT department has reset all student passwords. School Administrators will work with teachers to make students aware of their new passwords. This may impact software applications such as SAVAS, I-Ready, Edgenuity and HMH (today only). No data has been accessed. The GSCS network has not been compromised. This is a preventative measure. All staff accounts are secured via two-factor authentication and do not require a password reset. The safety measures put in place by GSCS IT in the past year helped to minimize this type of outside activity.
Thank you,
![GSCS IT Update - Student Account Password Reset](https://core-docs.s3.amazonaws.com/griffin-spalding_county_school_system_ar/live_feed_image/image/8222638/large_I.T._Update.png)

GSCS CTAE had an Educator Singing Day where eight Teaching as a Profession students committed to careers in education. GSCS offered these students a pre-contract to come back to GSCS after they graduate college. They also received a scholarship for two free classes at either Southern Crescent Technical College or a University. We are so proud of these students!
