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.”
Friday night's Thirds hockey game was truly one of the best of the season. Although it ended in a 3-2 loss in double overtime, our team played extremely well as we were backstopped by a 42-save performance by our goaltender. We scored a goal in the first period, on a partial breakaway, and again in the second period with our players crowding the opposition's net. We took three penalties in the game but our defenseman and penalty-killing forwards came up big and didn't allow a goal during the other team's man advantage. All the coaches were impressed by our team's resilience and the excellent sportsmanship displayed despite a tough loss. All in all, it was a great game and our team should be proud of how we played!
