Warren County High School was evacuated Wednesday morning after a student discovered what appeared to be a bomb threat written on a bathroom wall.

School officials decided to err on the side of caution and had all of the students wait outside the school while the threat was investigated.

Buses soon arrived and transported students to McMinnville Civic Center. It took about an hour to clear the school and determine it is bomb-free.

Parents were given the option of picking up their students at the Civic Center or allowing them to be bused back to WCHS. They could also pick them up early at the high school.
