A Jeffco Public Schools laptop stolen from an employees home  is prompting 
concerns by the school district that sensitive student information has 
fallen into the wrong hands.

On Monday, Jan. 28, a special education technician had a personal laptop 
and jump drive stolen during a home robbery in Arvada. The jump drive may 
have contained the following information for as many as 2,900 special 
education students.

     * Student name and date of birth
     * Student ID number (this is not a Social Security number, but rather

     * School location If the student has received district transportation
     * Additional information such as parent or guardian name and contact 
information, may also have been on the jump drive.
