Over the past few months, there have been several instances of schools canceling classes due to TikTok rumors. In some cases, the rumors were related to school shootings or other violent acts.

While it is understandable that schools want to take precautions to keep their students safe, canceling classes over unconfirmed rumors can be disruptive and unnecessary. It can also create unnecessary fear and panic among students and parents.
