     * What’s this? 

   A Bullitt County Public Schools employee accidentally sent an e-mail message
   to about 1,800 school district workers Tuesday that included the names and
   Social Security numbers of 676 district employees.

   The employees were identified as not having completed the districts 2010
   open-enrollment process for insurance, and the e-mail was intended as a
   reminder to complete the process, said Superintendent Keith Davis.

   Davis said he was included on the list of people affected.

   The employee did not mean to include Social Security numbers, Davis said.
   The original message was sent at 7:47 a.m. Tuesday. The employee realized
   the mistake and recalled the message at 7:59 a.m.

   The districts technology department made sure the messages were removed from
   e-mail accounts, Davis said.

   School board attorney Eric Farris said the district sent letter to all
   affected employees Tuesday afternoon to notify them of the mistake.
