We “hacked” PowerSchool back in my day too… when we figured out that every teacher’s password was their initials twice. Some grades got changed but they caught on, rolled back the data and changed their passwords
My IT teacher’s password was his personalised number plate. I only used it to unblock Newgrounds for my friends.
oof default passwords
my class back then at least had to pool money for a harware usb keylogger to get the teachers credentials. Was fun till someone snitched on us
