Investigation notes

Knoch School District is an educational institution responsible for the administration of K-12 academic programs and student services. As part of its standard operations, the district maintains sensitive records including student academic performance, enrollment documentation, and personnel files for faculty and staff. In 2025, the district officially reported a data security incident to the Indiana Attorney General involving unauthorized access to its information systems. Affected individuals have been sent a formal data breach notification letter outlining the nature of the event and the specific categories of information involved. If you received this correspondence, it indicates that your personal information was stored within the district's network during the time of the incident, and you should review the provided instructions regarding protective measures.

What our attorneys examine

A cyberattack does not excuse a company from protecting the information it holds. We look at whether Knoch School District used reasonable security, how long it kept the data, and how quickly it told the people affected. Those questions decide whether a class action or individual claim is possible. Read more on how ransomware lawsuits work, or browse other incident files in Indiana.
