Mold has driven more than 1,000 Dripping Springs Elementary School students

and teachers into temporary facilities.

KVUE's Molly reports on the Dripping Springs mold problem

The first of the mold problems surfaced in November. The discovery meant

students and teachers got an unexpected 9-day vacation as the district

worked to clean the mold.

Initially, the school district thought the problem could be fixed quickly.

Later tests showed the problem was worse than they first thought and a

decision was made to put students in portables until the permanent facility

was cleaned.

The temporary classrooms will be used at least through the end of the school

year.
