School has been canceled Tuesday at North Attleboro Middle School after a message written on a bathroom wall there threatened a school shooting, according to a news release from the Massachusetts school district.
A staff member came across the message with "threatening language" just after 7 a.m. Tuesday, district officials said. Administrators got in touch with North Attleboro police and an investigation got underway.
Students had not gotten to school yet, and buses were re-routed after school and after school activities were called off "out of an abundance of caution."
Classes are continuing on schedule at other schools in the district.
