After Tropical Storm Lee in 2011, MacArthur Elementary School was left severely damaged. As YNN's Carmella Mataloni reports, demolition at the school officially started on Tuesday.

BINGHAMTON, N.Y. -- Demolition at MacArthur Elementary officially started on Tuesday. A crowd of current district officials and retired faculty members were on hand to watch the next phase of the reconstruction project begin.

Although it was a bittersweet moment for many, the demolition means the rebuilding is moving forward. The demolition phase is expected to be completed by December.

The entire project for the new school will cost $77 million. However, more than 96 percent of the cost will be covered by state and federal funding. The funding will cover demolition, removal, and new construction.

Before the demolition started, many people spoke about their memories at the school.

"So many people here are students, parents and people in our community, share those memories so people don't forget about this wonderful building," said Sherry Laskowski, a former third grade teacher and parent.

Once demolition is completed, construction will begin in January. The entire project is expected to be complete by fall 2015.

Demolition underway at MacArthur Elementary

The demolition of Newtown's Sandy Hook Elementary School will be unusually thorough, say officials, to ensure no part of the school is sold for mementos of the tragic shooting. Most of the building will be completely crushed and hauled away to an undisclosed location.

When the old Sandy Hook Elementary School is demolished, building materials will be pulverized on site and metal will be taken away and melted down in an effort to eliminate nearly every trace of the building where a gunman killed 26 people last December.

Contractors also will be required to sign confidentiality agreements and workers will guard the property's perimeter to prevent onlookers from taking photographs or videos.

The goal is to prevent exploitation of any remnants of the building, Newtown First Selectman E. Patricia Llodra said Tuesday.

"We want to be absolutely certain to do everything we can to protect the privacy of the families and the Sandy Hook community," she said. "We're going to every possible length to eliminate any possibility that any artifacts from the building would be taken from the campus and ... end up on eBay."

Demolition is set to begin next week and be finished before the Dec. 14 anniversary of the shootings. Town voters last month accepted a state grant of $49.3 million to raze the building and build a new school, which is expected to open by December 2016.

The contractors' confidentiality agreements, which were first reported Monday by The News-Times of Danbury, forbid public discussion of the site as well as photographs or disclosure of any information about the building.

Llodra, the superintendent of schools and other town officials have been discussing how to handle the demolition for weeks. Llodra said they want to shield the victims' families and the community from more trauma, and don't want any part of the school used for personal gain.
