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.”
Eleven Sixth Form Students Attend Model UN Conference
Eleven Eaglebrook Sixth Form students traveled to the University of New Haven for the annual model UN event called ChargerMUN on December 9th. 150 students from 20 high schools around the east coast participated in the event. The conference began with a keynote speech by Richard A. Boucher who used to be the Ambassador to Cyprus, Consul General in Hong Kong, and most recently the Deputy Secretary-General of Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development from 2009 to 2013. The major theme at the ChargerMUN event was social media. Various committees debated social media’s role in human rights, education, and cybersecurity. Kiernan Keller ’19 even took home an award, as he won the “Outstanding Delegate” award in the Security Council. The next Model UN conference will take place in the new year, and will be open for Underformers.
