Fox parents and people who live near the elementary school in Richmond's Fan District had hoped the building could be stabilized as soon as possible to prevent further damage.
The Richmond Fire Department initially told CBS 6 during its first response to Fox that the fire alarm panel, which was in trouble condition, signaled zone 32. Fire officials said they didn't know what zone 32 meant at the time because firefighters couldn't get in touch with RPS personnel.
More than a month after their school building was destroyed in a fire, Fox Elementary students and teachers return to in-person learning at First Baptist Church on Monument Avenue Monday.
