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 Varsity soccer team lost their final game of the season 2-1 to Northfield Mount Hermon. Despite enjoying more possession and creating more scoring opportunities than the visitors, Eaglebrook struggle to put the ball in the net. NMH took 1-0 lead in the first half after a scramble in the box, and then doubled their lead early in the second half with well-taken breakaway. Eaglebrook got back into the game when Devin Walcott drew a penalty kick and then converted from the spot. The tying goal proved elusive, though, as the NMH goalie made several good saves and Landon Pickett's beautiful free kick in the final minute hit the crossbar. The 12 Sixth Formers on the team played the bulk of the minutes and should be proud of the way they competed in their final Eaglebrook soccer game. We look forward to gathering as a team one more time at next week's Sports Banquet and saying thanks to those Sixth Formers for all their efforts leading the Eaglebrook soccer program.
