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.”
Eaglebrook’s first secondary school game was on December 4 against the Taft School Rhinos in Watertown, CT started with a goal by Eaglebrook mid-way through the first period. With four minutes left in the first period, Taft scored a goal to tie up the game. Early in the second period, Taft scored their second goal of the game, moving the score to 2-1. A little later in the period Taft established a lead and made it 3-1. Taft had several penalties in the third period to put Eaglebrook on a few powerplays, which gave them many great scoring chances. They could not convert, and the game ended with a 3-1 loss for Eaglebrook.
