1930-1958
Before the opening of Masconomet, from the 1920s through the fall of 1957, students of Middleton attended Howe-Manning through eighth grade, and high school students attended Holten High School in Danvers (Raynard 97). Boxford students had to travel to other towns to receive education after primary school. These schools were in Georgetown, Andover, North Andover, and Topsfield (Jansen 124). Topsfield students attended Topsfield Academy and Proctor School after Topsfield Academy was closed (Dinan).
Official plans for the school were being made and the land on which Masco would be built was purchased by Mr. and Mrs. Frederick McComiskey (Jansen 125).
The first school year started on September 9, 1959 (Clark).
The junior high building was built (Historical Analysis).
