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 Eagles took to the road to face off against Winchendon School's Varsity B team on Friday. The Eagles arrived prepared and ready to face a team that has gotten the better of them over the past few years. These Eagles would rewrite the script, and it started early in the first period. On the second shift of the game, the Eagles would find the net on a powerful drive and wrap-around goal. The team would not let up as it ended the period with three more goals and only conceded one. With a comfortable lead, the Eagles began to relax and get away from their strong team play and suddenly Winchendon was back in the game, knotting it up 4-4 with 5 min left in the second period. Great leadership and communication for many of the Sixth Form players helped to refocus the entire team and they were able to reset and finish out the game with two more goals to finish up 6-4. The team learned a lot about themselves in this one and will return to the ice tomorrow when they take on TopGun.
