Class action alleged Naviance (a college-planning portal acquired by PowerSchool in 2021) tracked student usage beyond what schools and parents were told, with tracking that persisted after students stopped using the platform. Chicago Public Schools is a co-defendant. $17.25M settlement received preliminary approval Feb 27, 2026; final approval pending. NOTE: this matter is separate from the much larger December 2024 PowerSchool data breach (62.4 million student records, 9.5 million teacher records) which is its own consolidated MDL with separate claim processes.
