St. Jacob Elementary School

December 16, 2021 Triad Families, The district has learned of another TikTok challenge that threatens the safety of schools across the United States tomorrow, December 17, 2021. This challenge is NOT specific to any Triad CUSD #2 school, our community, or region. It is a general post, circulating across the country. We are aware of this TikTok challenge and Triad CUSD #2 is keeping in close contact with our partners in law enforcement, and will continue to monitor all threats to the safety and welfare of our students. Again, there is no specific threat towards Triad schools. Even so, we will remain vigilant, continuing to investigate any rumors and/or threats that may arise. If anything develops, we will communicate with our families immediately. Additionally, we need your help in speaking with your student about this TikTok challenge. Ask them not to repost any threatening posts and messages. Please remember, participation in social media threats, on or off school grounds, could result in school discipline and/or criminal charges. Keeping our students safe requires all stakeholders (students, parents, community members, & schools) communicating and cooperating. As always, we encourage stakeholders to communicate with school administration and law enforcement if there is rumor of any suspicious threat to school safety. Thank you for your continued partnership and support. We can only navigate these challenges when we all work together. Respectfully, Mrs. Leigh Lewis Triad CUSD #2 Superintendent
