What happened

According to the claim tracker RansomLook, the ransomware group The Gentlemen listed Airdrie Christian Academy (airdriechristian.com) on its leak site on 2026-11-02. The listing describes the academy as a private K-12 Christian school in Airdrie, Alberta.

This is a claim by the group, not an established fact. The following details are not confirmed:

  • Whether any intrusion, data theft or encryption took place. No independent verification has been reported.
  • Whether the school has commented. It has not confirmed the claim in the provided sources.
  • The entry point, the type of data involved and the data volume. The listing captured by RansomLook does not state a data size for this entry.

RansomLook also shows the group’s tracked leak-site and chat URLs as down at the time of capture (RansomLook).

Am I affected?

Not confirmed. No source states what data, if any, was taken, or whose data it might be. People connected to the school, such as students, families and staff, are the ones who would be concerned if the claim proves accurate.
