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.”
Thirds basketball won its fourth game of the season by topping Hartsbrook School in a 52-23 final at home on Tuesday afternoon to improve to a 4-4 mark. The game began with both teams trading a pair of turnovers in a rocky start before the home hosts went on a 9-2 run to set the tone for the rest of the contest. In addition to the traditional 2-3 zone, the Eagles were able to give their opponents several different looks on the defensive side of the ball by running a man-to-man scheme and double-teaming the opposition whenever possible. That led to a series of easy transition baskets on the offensive side of the ball to put the game out of reach long before the final buzzer sounded. Next up for the Eagles will be a tough road trip to Cannan, NH to take on our archrivals at the Cardigan Mountain School with tipoff scheduled for 5:30 on Saturday afternoon.
