A Long Island middle school was evacuated Wednesday morning after a note was found in a bathroom.

Nassau County police say a bomb squad was called to Seaford Middle School.

The contents of the note were not immediately clear.

Students were let back into the school by noon. 

The evacuation comes a day after a scare at Elmont High School, where students were herded into safe zones with the lights out for hours after someone spotted a person with a gun that turned out to be a toy.
