Dear MCC School Family,
We were just made aware that PowerSchool sent out a broad email to all of Mason County Central Schools' Parents/Guardians and Staff regarding the cybersecurity incident back in December of 2024. So far all indications show that Mason County Central's data was not a widescale breach. In addition, Mason County Central Schools does NOT load individual's social security numbers into the system. But being diligent in assuring the protection of your data is what PowerSchool is striving to do.
As a reminder, PowerSchool is a company that provides Mason County Central Schools and districts across the United States with student information management software.
As discussed previously, we recently learned that on December 28, 2024, PowerSchool discovered that an unauthorized actor gained access to certain customer data, potentially including some information relating to Mason County Central Schools.
We understand that on or about January 29, 2025, PowerSchool began sending notifications via email directly to certain impacted individuals and families to notify them of the incident. It is anticipated that these incident notification emails from PowerSchool will be sent to affected individuals and families on a rolling basis in the coming days and weeks. PowerSchool has represented its investigation into the incident has not yet concluded. As such, our understanding of the scope of the incident is actively evolving and there remains a possibility that those families who have not yet received an email from PowerSchool may receive one in the future, along with further communication from Mason County Central Schools
We understand that PowerSchool is sending the notifications from one of the following email addresses:Ps-sis-incident@mail.csid.com, Ps-sis-incident@mail1.csid.com, or Ps-sis-incident@mail2.csid.com.
As always, we encourage our community to remain vigilant when using email.

If you receive a PowerSchool correspondence that is not from one of the above email addresses or you are unsure about an email’s legitimacy, please exercise caution. Do not click any links or download attachments.
While we await final findings from PowerSchool concerning the scope of the impact of this incident, it is important to also remain diligent in reviewing your financial account statements and credit reports for fraudulent or irregular activity on a regular basis.

MCC English Department attended the Michigan Reading Association conference in Grand Rapids. Mrs. Gerhart and Ms. Moore presented their stories and successes of our Silent Sustained Reading (SSR) program. They taught other educators about the importance of daily reading, reading fluency, and reading stamina. Many people left the presentation ready to bring this SSR data to their own districts and implement SSR there. MCC teachers are doing great things across the state!
MCC Families,
The picture on this post shows our revised exam schedule due to the snow day. We have pushed everything forward one day. Exams will now be given on Friday and Monday. The third trimester will now begin on Tuesday, March 11.
Dear MCC School Family,
Last night's flash freeze has covered our roads in ice with some drifting making for dangerous driving conditions, therefore the Mason County Central School District including Victory Early Childhood Center will be closed Thursday, March 6th. Stay Safe, Warm, and Strong Spartans!
Shelby wins it and moves onto the district championship on Friday night. Thank you to the Spartan seniors for their contributions to our program.
Shelby still holds a big lead as we head to the fourth quarter.
Girls basketball district action Shelby takes a commanding halftime lead 34-16.
MCC esports won a hard fought victory against Wayland on Wednesday. The Spartans were trailing 1-2 and came from behind to win the match 3-2! The team was lead by Sophomore Jackson Rosenow who won both of his sets without dropping a single game! MCC esports is now 1-1 on the spring season.
National Anthem and now tip off in district girls basketball semi-final action. Central takes on the Shelby Tigers. Fire up, Spartans! 🔥
Dear MCC Parents and Guardians,
If you haven't done so already please take a moment of your day to complete the anonymous parent/guardian survey at the following link;
https://kentisd.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_5z4iAhLEuKWTRAO?D_Code=53010&ParentGuardianSurvey
The survey should take about 15 minutes to complete. We really want to hear from you and appreciate you taking the time to help us deliver a positive learning environment for our students... your children.
The window to complete the survey closes on Friday, March 7th.
Look at what English 9B read during our second trimester! (These students worked on building their reading stamina by moving from 10 minutes of SSR per day at the start of the trimester to 13 minutes per day at the end of the trimester.) The students read a total of 41,729 pages across 104 books. That’s an increase of 1,304 pages!
Spartans win the district girls basketball quarterfinal matchup against Hesperia 75-24. We now move on to Wednesday night's semi-final against the Shelby Tigers right back here in Scottville.
Halftime in Scottville. Spartan girls lead it.
End of the first qtr. Spartan girls lead Hesperia
