Photos: Restoration Ongoing at Frost, Buoyed by Mosaic, Community Support
Photos of the aftermath of a July 28 fire at Frost Elementary School, shown alongside photos snapped at the school's Aug. 16 open house greeting, give testament to the will of a community to make right the lives of teachers and students at Frost.
Two Hillsborough County commissioners and representatives of the Mosaic company were in attendance Aug. 16 at the open house for parents and students at Frost Elementary School, where a fire July 28 destroyed the kindergarten classrooms of teachers Holly Cover and Jamy Daily-Herman.
"At first it was devastating and now it's just been great all the support from everybody," said teacher Holly Cover, in a full report on the gathering posted at Brandon Patch (). "We couldn't rebuild without it."
That support includes a $5,000 check from the Mosaic company and school supplies donated by employees at the Riverview plant and the FishHawk offices.
