The Carroll Independent School District notified families early Wednesday morning about a threat that was discovered overnight.

It impacts Carroll High School and Carroll Senior High School.

Both campuses will be closed on Wednesday while police investigate.

Southlake DPS said a message was written on a bathroom stall door by someone referring to the STAAR test and a potential school shooting. However, no specific target was identified.

All other Carroll ISD schools are open for normal classes on Wednesday.
