A later post warned that the students were not safe and that they would be killed on Monday.
Investigators were made aware of the threats on Friday night by a parent and student at Falcon Cove Middle School north of Miami.
The girl was later taken into custody and taken to a juvenile center. Authorities said they arrested the girl on two counts of making a written threat to kill and making a false report about a firearm.
