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 Thirds Basketball Team made the long trip to Rectory on Friday, January 5. Coach Mariani hoped for a peaceful and relaxing ride along Route 91 and 90 and the secondary roads of eastern Connecticut. And this is what he got. Because the boys were well rested we got off the bus and our captains Jack de Bruyn Kops and Max Sabalos got us warmed up. This was our best game thus far, as we led at the half. If it were not such a strong third period by Rectory we may have won. Rectory out rebounded us during that period. Ball movement and passing was outstanding the entire game. Brandon Royal and Yoon Ha were excellent at bringing the ball up the court and making passes to the open man. Our bigger players rebounded well and posted up under the hoop. If we had had a couple better bounces the game may have ended in our favor. The team looks forward to our game on Wednesday against Williston.
