Why would you send a sixth-grade boy to boarding school? Shouldn't a ninth-grade student start high school? What is a junior boarding school? Make an appointment to visit us today and learn why Eaglebrook, a boarding and day school for boys in middle school, might be the right place for your son.
Eaglebrook School was founded in 1922 by Howard Gibbs as a private boarding and day school for boys in middle school. Learn about our school in Deerfield, Massachusetts then and now, and read about the Core Skills we think every boy should know.
At Eaglebrook, we recognize that all students learn in different ways, vary in their innate abilities, and come from a variety of educational backgrounds. Classes at Eaglebrook are organized to meet the needs of each boy.
Eaglebrook is a close community of middle school students, teachers, and their families. Activities outside of the academic classroom are important to the intellectual, social, physical, and emotional development of boys in middle school. Learn about the programs we offer at Eaglebrook, from athletics to arts.
At Eaglebrook, boys learn more than they ever thought possible, discover inner resources, develop self-confidence, and have fun along the way. Delivering on our mission is only possible through the incredible generosity of alumni, parents, parents of alumni, and friends.”
The Golf team traveled to the Wykcoff Country Club in Holyoke this afternoon to face the Williston School's JV team. Of our six players, only Enrique, who led the day with a 5 over par, and Javier, just three strokes off that pace, had played this course in the past. Regardless, the entire team played very well, and each Eaglebrook player won his individual match. Because Williston is a high school, we played "stroke", and scored an excellent 215 to their 255. Chuanji played his best round of the season in his first match; Xan thought he had had a bad day, then added up his scorecard for the third best round of the day. Kai, playing number five, had similar feelings until he realized only three of our opponents had bested his score. Finally, Alex at number two, and playing a junior whose beard was better than Mr. Fox's, won every hole in his match. The ride home seemed to be twice as short, and we were back in plenty of time for dinner.
