A threat written on a Gainesville High School bathroom wall led to a sweep of the school about 6 p.m. Wednesday. Superintendent Wanda Creel said Wednesday night the threat was not anything specific, but did not reveal its contents. “It was just something that was written on the boy’s bathroom wall that let us know that there was a concern,” Creel said.
