California Teachers Association (CTA) sent a warning to teachers on Oct. 5 about the TikTok “slap a teacher” challenge, which encourages students to slap teachers.
After an elementary school student struck a teacher in the back of her head in Lancaster County School District in South Carolina, CTA issued a warning titled “When Social Media Trends Become Assault” on Oct. 5, aimed at the latest TikTok challenge, which prompts students to physically attack teachers or staff members and run away before being caught.
