Tiktok Challenge Prompts Schools Nationwide to Step Up Security

A vague and viral Tiktok and social media trend has schools on high alert today. The challenge originally was for students to skip school today and at some point changed to students posting threats of violence, shootings and even bomb threats. Authorities have dismissed the posts as non-credible but it has prompted schools to respond with police and law enforcement presence and even some school closures in multiple states.
