If you have kids in school, you no doubt have seen communications from your school district about an anonymous threat nationwide, calling today “American School Shooting Day”. This threat has been posted on social media, like TikTok, and references shooting and bomb threats today.

Area school district superintendents have noted this is a general threat, not targeting any specific school or area. Nonetheless, there will be a heightened police presence at many schools today.

Officials also encourage parents to take time to discuss appropriate social media use with your children. Obviously, law enforcement encourages you to remember if you see something, say something.
