School districts throughout the state are beefing up security and keeping a close eye on social media after apparent threats were made on TikTok nationwide.

Connecticut State Police and other state agencies are investigating and monitoring the situation. They say there are no credible threats on schools in Connecticut at this time.

They say the posts and rumored threats appear to have started from a nationwide TikTok challenge.

Police say the posts have circulated for several days across the country, but say it is possible the threats originated from a TikTok challenge to skip school.

Although many districts and police departments are already on high alert, some students at Norwalk High School say they're still on edge from the series of hoax threats their school received a few weeks ago.

"You never know, it kind of all goes to everyone's head that, yeah, it's a hoax, but you always have that gut feeling like, what if it's real?" said 11th grader Casey Donnelley.

Below are a list of statements from local schools.

Weston Schools put out a statement that said, "There are no actionable or credible threats to the Weston Public Schools at this time, however out of an abundance of caution, there will be an increased police presence in and around our schools."

Orange Schools said, "Out of an abundance of caution, the Orange Police Department will have extra patrols at all Orange schools tomorrow."
