Caleb Dustin Hunking bears a close relationship to Haverhill’s most historical character, being a direct descendant of Hannah Duston. Born in Hill, New Hampshire February 24, 1805, he attended Franklin Academy, Franklin, New Hampshire for a short time after which teaching occupied several years of his early life. Removing to Haverhill he became one of the best known and esteemed shoe manufacturers in this City. In 1855 he became the first man from Haverhill to sit on the Governors Council and in 1857 served in the State Senate. Later he was “Justice of the Peace and Quorum for all of the Counties of the Commonwealth.” In 1847 he built a home at the corner of Merrimack and How Streets where the Masonic Temple now is. When the Business Section expanded from Water Street to Merrimack Street in 1871 the house was moved to Main Street. In 1923 it was sold to the American Legion for use as a home. Expanding his shoe business he built “the Granite Front” a business block at 68-84 Merrimack Street where he occupied the upper floors, renting the street floor to R. H. Macy who later sold his business here and moved to New York where he established and built up the spectacularly successful department store bearing the name of “Macy’s.” A substantial amount of capitol is said to have been supplied by his friend Caleb Hunking.…..

Dear Parents and Guardians,
I hope this email finds you and your families safe and well during this difficult time. Thank you so much for your continued support in assisting your child with remote learning. Our online reading resources have been utilized by the children and I want to acknowledge your assistance for making this happen.
As the school year winds down, it is so important for children to continue reading during this time. A Summer Reading List has been put together based on Grade Levels for your children. These books are available at the Haverhill Public Library for Curbside Pick-up as well as on-line with the use of a library card. The following websites can be accessed:

In addition, the Haverhill Public Library has graciously assisted us with this process and along with this email are resources they have provided for you to use as well.
As mentioned, the Reading Lists are grouped by Grade Levels. These books are suggestions and organized in various genres that might interest your child/ren. Here are some ways in which your child/ren and you can enjoy reading this summer:
· read a book to a child if the reading level is too difficult and he/she wants to listen to you read
· read a book with your child and discuss the characters and events as they happen in the story
· have a “family reading night” where everyone reads his/her own book
· read 1 of your favorite books as a child to your child/ren and talk about why it is 1 of your favorites

When a book is completed – have your child/ren write down the name of the book and keep a list of all the books that you read this summer. Sign your name after each book. When we return to school – we will tally up the number of books your child/ren read and hand out raffles and prizes.

A Message from the Superintendent
10/15/2019 Dear Parents and Guardians:
The safety and security of our students is of the utmost importance. To that end, we continuously review our policies and practices to ensure that recent research and data support the policies we employ. The US Department of Education, International Association of Chiefs of Police, FEMA and the FBI all recommend having active plans that include decision making and options rather than traditional school lockdown in the unlikely event of a school intruder. As you may know, Haverhill Public Schools has adopted ALICE (Alert, Lockdown, Inform, Counter, Evacuate), a nationally recognized program. ALICE is a proactive set of responses to an active school intruder event which empowers individuals in crisis situations to be prepared to consider all options.
The school district will be providing two School Safety Information Nights that will give parents and community members an opportunity to learn about ALICE. These forums will include timelines on the implementation of educating our students prior to conducting our first student drill in November 2019.
Parent Informational Nights will be held on the following dates:
10/21/19 Hunking School: 5:00pm-6:30pm
10/22/19 Consentino School: 7:00pm-8:30pm
If you have questions or would like more information, please consider joining us at one of our Informational Nights. Spanish interpreter services will be available on both Informational Nights. More information about ALICE is also available at: https://www.alicetraining.com/ Sincerely,
Margaret Marotta, Ed. D
Superintendent of Schools
