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.”
11 Sixth Formers participated in the annual ChargerMUN conference hosted by the University of New Haven on Saturday, December 7. Each student was divided amongst three separate committees, all of which dealt with human rights in regions of instability around the world. This was the first Model UN conference for some but a few had participated in a Model UN conference at Choate last spring. This time around, Conan C. ‘20 won an award for "Outstanding Delegate" in the Human Rights Council and Kyle P. ‘20 won the same award in the UN Refugee Agency. “For many of the delegates, it was an enjoyable first Model UN experience, while for the more experienced delegates it was a valuable opportunity to further develop their skills and compete against high school students,” said Mr. Leyden, Director of Studies.
