The Brief: According to an internet meme, National Skip School Day is on December 2nd.
DEEP DIVE
Teenagers on TikTok have been urging each other to skip school on December 2, in what would be a widespread skip school day. The virality of these videos seems to have inspired a Change.org petition titled “Skip school December 2” with 10 signatures and an Urban Dictionary entry declaring that December 2nd is “National Skip School Day.”
How far this meme will spread and whether or not anyone will actually skip school has yet to be seen.
