Grades 7-12

Message from Mrs. Dwyer: October 15, 2021

I want to take this opportunity to ask for your help and support. It has been brought to our attention that a new trend has emerged on Tik-Tok, a popular video sharing social network service, aimed at school-aged children. This trend encourages students to engage in, record, and post “challenges” that are dangerous, destructive, and in some cases, criminal in nature.

Below is the list of Tik-Tok school challenges:

• September: Vandalize school bathrooms

• October: Smack a staff member

• November: Kiss your friend’s girlfriend at school

• December: “Deck the halls and show your b****”

• January: Jab a breast

• February: Mess up school signs

• March: Make a mess in the cafeteria

• April: “Grab some eggs” (another stealing challenge)

• May: Flip off the front office

• June: Spray a neighbor’s fence

We proactively are sharing this information out to CCS families with the hope that you will take time to engage your student in important conversations about this destructive trend and the consequences of participation in these inappropriate activities. It is important that our students understand that these actions will not be tolerated in school or by law enforcement.

We will do our part throughout our school to clearly communicate to all students that these actions will have immediate and potentially long-term ramifications.

We appreciate your assistance in reinforcing the seriousness of this message. I sincerely thank you for all you can do to keep our kids safe and held to a higher standard of respect and conduct.

Respectfully, Kate Dwyer: MS/HS Principal
