A construction worker unscrews an attachment bolt to remove another of the big braces stabilizing the Memorial Building façade at Suffield Academy. The braces were installed in July, the bulk of the old building was torn down in August, and the new, larger structure was framed by the end of October. Work has continued on schedule through the winter, and the Academy expects to put the new, improved classrooms to use by the start of the next school year.
