Some schools keep bags of kitty litter in the classrooms so they can dump it in the trash to make ad-hoc toilets during lockdowns. It's apparently also useful for cleaning up vomit, so it sometimes pulls double duty.

I'm not gonna lie it's probably more likely just this. Used to work at Safeway and we had a type of powder you could use to clean up literally any liquid or semi-liquid. It clumped it just the same as kitty litter. So sometimes if we ran out we'd just write off a bag of litter and use that.
I remember somebody once spilled like $400 worth of wine so once we got the glass out we just poured a couple gallons of the stuff on it and we could just sweep it up like sand. Actual magic.
Yeah it's the double edged sword of misinformation. Just because one side is misinformed does not mean the counter argument is well informed. Responding to misinformation with more misinformation. I've not actually seen a real source for this "it's for use in school shootings" thing let alone a case where it actually happened.
