Is social media to blame? Chester County teachers become target of viral attacks

One parent said her daughter was targeted on TikTok a month after teachers fell victim to an online harassment campaign. She said the district’s response was lackluster.

Students in the Malvern district impersonated their teachers on social media. Schools across Chesco and the U.S. are wondering how to adapt amid ever-changing technology.

After consulting with law enforcement agencies, the Great Valley School District held an assembly for eighth-grade students to address the responsibility of social media.
