BREAKING: 24,903 student social security numbers missing in Laredo Independent School District

LAREDO —  A disk holding the social security numbers of every student in the Laredo Independent School District — a total of 24,903 — is missing, according to the Texas Education Agency.

TEA officials said they first learned of the possible security breach in January, when the University of Texas at Dallas contacted them looking for sensitive data university researchers had requested from Laredo ISD.

That data, which was supposed to be delivered to the TEA first, never made it to the agency.
