How do they do that? IIRC, mirrors are required per building codes?

A good move by the school.

Or how about you give the kids extra space to let them practice their creativity?

So many people always seem determined to completely suck the joy out of schools, like it's the 1950s again. Everything is so strict and anti-fun.

TikTok and social media in general are popular amongst kids today. That's just how it is. I think schools should try to embrace youth trends and find creative ways to incorporate them into the learning environment.
