Hello Haverhill Hawk Families! 

I am Mrs. Ashley Ransom. I have the distinct honor of serving as the Principal of Haverhill Elementary. I am entering my 6th year as Principal at Haverhill, with 5 previous years of experience in administration at Covington Elementary and as a principal at Lincoln Elementary in Huntington County School Corporation. 

For those of you that are new to Haverhill, I send you a big WELCOME! To all families returning and joining us - I believe that having YOU - our families, our community, teachers & staff - support our educational goals allows us to be the best school in Southwest Allen County. Thank you for investing your time as a volunteer, donations, completing assisments, reading with your child, attending meetings with our team, and your labor of love to our school. Since you spend time pouring into our school, our educators can focus on safety, standards, experiences for students, and our students well-being. 

Are you excited to get your kiddos back in school? Are you ready to get them on a routine, not eating all your food, meeting new friends, up before noon, accomplishing goals, and ready to tackle a new grade?

Our Haverhill team is beyond excited to welcome students and families back on Monday, August 4th for Back to School Night. Our teachers have poured a lot of time, energy, and love into their classrooms - doors will open for Kindergarten and PreK students at 5:30 PM. Grades 1-5 may join classrooms from 6:00  PM - 7:00 PM. During our back-to-school night, pack up your student's bookbag and bring all of your supplies to the B2S night, meet your teacher, meet your bus driver, walk the building, visit previous teachers, and visit our PTC table for a popsicle. Don't forget to say "hello" to our school counselors, coaches, Mrs. Kottkamp, special education teachers, speech, and special area teachers, too! 

As we head into our 2025 - 2026 school year, remember that all of us are Haverhill Hawks. We have an incredible amount of support and people that surround us - ready to pitch-in, be a solution seeker, a listening ear, point you in the right direction, or just be a support to you and your family. Please reach out to your student's teacher as a first line of defense with praises, concerns, conflicts, and questions. Then, I am happy to collaborate as a team with the teacher, school counselors, and grow our school support team. Together, we are setting the foundation to your student's future success. I can't wait to start our year-long journey together on Wednesday, August 6th  when doors open at 9:05 AM. 

Educationally Yours, 

Mrs. Ashley Ransom

Starting this school year, ipad devices WILL NOT be coming home in grades K-5. 

Charging stations will be set up in each classroom in order for ipads to be charged and remain within the classroom. iPads will come home in anticipation of weather events, at teacher discretion, or homework purposes. Otherwise, charging blocks, cords, and iPads will remain at school. 

Do you know who can help you at Haverhill with any technology device question? Mrs. Hargan! 

She is ready to serve our staff and students with any questions about technology, testing, technology needs within the classroom, remote learning days, or your technology equipement needs.

Our PTC board is a group of Haverhill parents that are committed to serving our school. We work to raise funds so that Haverhill can have fun events, connect families, create experiences for students, equipment, furniture, water bottle fillers, musical sound system upgrades, school-wide initiatives, money for teachers, and SO much MORE. We strive to keep the ball moving forward with other upgrades and by offering experiences to students. If you would like to join the PTC, please reach out to ptchaverhill@gmail.com
