Swampscott, MA – Staff members from CTA Construction Managers LLC recently joined the school building committee, members of the community, construction crew members, and school district staff for a topping off ceremony for the new Swampscott Consolidated Elementary School. Students signed the steel beam used in the ceremonial topping off ceremony for the school earlier in the summer.

CTA Construction Managers was awarded the contract in November 2022 to build the new 154,000sf elementary school building. The building will accommodate up to 900 students in grades K-4.

“Site work for installation of geothermal wells has begun. Roof installation is ongoing along with interior construction, including framing, and mechanical/electrical/plumbing/fire protection rough. The exterior masonry has also commenced,” said Pat Tompkins, principal of CTA Construction Managers.

“Construction is on track to be completed on-time for the 2024 school year,” said Paul Kalous, program director from Hill International, the owner’s project management firm. “Metal windows, curtainwall, and storefront installation will begin soon.”

This will be CTA Construction’s 45th school project in Massachusetts.
