Press release from the Shrewsbury Public Schools:
December 16, 2021
Dear Shrewsbury Families & Colleagues,
You may have seen news about a social media trend, mainly on TikTok, where there are general threats made about school violence tomorrow. These general threats have been posted across the U.S., and some apparent copycat posts have been made regarding specific school districts. Unfortunately, some of our students have seen posts on social media and have expressed concern about attending school tomorrow.
Please note:
I am confident in the safety and security of our schools, and I ask that parents reassure their children if they are concerned. I am truly sorry that this social media issue has caused concern for some of our students, and I hope the information that authorities have identified this as a non-specific national social media trend that is not credible is helpful to you.
Respectfully,
Joe Sawyer Superintendent of Schools
