After employees found a possible cyber threat on the district network, New Plymouth School District called off classes at its schools for the rest of the week, KBOI reported.

KBOI reported that Wade Wilson, the district’s superintendent, sent an e-mail about the possible cyber threat. The e-mail says no data compromise appears to have occurred.

KBOI reported that the district shut down every computer and Google account as a precaution. People should delete suspicious e-mails claiming to come from the district, its schools, educators or other groups. Officials intend to release more information once they are prepared.
