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.”
On Wednesday afternoon the Eaglebrook Varsity basketball team hosted the Wildcats from Williston Northampton. The Eagles started the game quickly as their defense caused multiple early turnovers for Williston, helping Eaglebrook jump out to a 10-2 lead. From that point on Eaglebrook maintained the lead, weathering a number of runs during the first half of the game. Midway through the third quarter Eaglebrook's defense again created turnovers; which gave the Eagles a bit more breathing room, ballooning the lead to 19 points. Williston continued to play aggressively, cutting into the lead occasionally, but in the end, the Eagles walked off with a 15-point victory, 57-42. Next is a trip to Belmont Hill on Saturday where Eaglebrook will play in the Belmont Hill Invitational.
