This is an update on our district’s ongoing network disruption. We continue to investigate the issue with third-party forensic specialists. Certain systems remain offline; however, we are pleased to announce that we have made great progress in the recovery process and anticipate systems coming back online in the near future. With that in mind, classes will resume as scheduled on Monday, April 21. Students should charge their Chromebooks and bring them to school on Monday if they have them at home. USD administrators, teachers and staff members are encouraged to arrive at work a little earlier than normal on Monday to allow time for logging into certain systems with new, temporary passwords. This should help reduce delays to the start of the school day once students arrive.

UPDATE: The Uintah School District continues to work to restore its network. Through its cyber insurance provider, the district secured third-party technical support this afternoon to help with the process. Classes will be held Thursday. Teachers at the elementary schools, middle schools, and the high school have been asked to prepare lessons that don’t rely on network connectivity. Ashley Valley Education Center and Uintah Online students should work from home tomorrow. At this time there is still no evidence that student data has been compromised. The district does not store credit card information on its network. Payments for school meals and school fees are processed by a third-party company that isn’t impact by the network outage. Also, USD doesn’t keep employee data like Social Security numbers or banking information on its network. Automated calls regarding attendance and school lunch balances have been suspended until the district’s network is back online. Additional information will be provided tomorrow as it becomes available.

UPDATE: The USD network remains offline following a cyberattack. Work is being done to restore it. There is NO evidence student data has been compromised. The district does NOT store credit card information on its network. Some automated attendance calls went out this morning. Those calls were based on yesterday's attendance. Automated calls have been switched off for now. More info will be provided as it becomes available.

At about 2 a.m. today, the Uintah School District’s network was the target of a cyberattack. The district has disabled its network in response to this attack. The district’s Technology Department is actively working to resolve the issue. Principals at all our schools have been notified that the network outage may last awhile. The district doesn't plan to cancel classes due to the outage.

A carbon monoxide detector in our school went off this afternoon shortly before the end of the school day. We followed our evacuation protocols and all students and staff were accounted for. Students may have left their classrooms without all their belongings. Naples Fire Department investigated the alarm and cleared the issue. They gave us the OK to re-enter the school after students who ride the bus had already boarded their buses.  If your student left something in their classroom that they need over the weekend, it can be picked up from the school between 2 p.m. and 3 p.m. today. As always the safety of our students and staff is our top priority. We understand this may be an inconvenience, and we appreciate your understanding.

Please note that when paying by check for school lunch fees, the check must be made payable to Uintah School District rather than to individual schools. This ensures proper processing and avoids any delays in applying payments to your child’s account. If you have any questions, please contact the Foods office at 435-781-3185.

We would like to remind you that there is no school Wednesday, Nov. 27, through Friday, Nov. 29. The district office and all district buildings will be closed Thursday and Friday. All USD schools and the district office will resume normal schedules on Monday, Dec. 2.
