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.”
Eaglebrook School Celebrates Grandparents’ Day 2023
Grandparents' Day is a special occasion that celebrates the love, wisdom, and experience that grandparents bring to the lives of our students. At Eaglebrook, this day is highly anticipated by students and faculty alike. Grandparents’ Day fell on April 28 this year, and the day was packed with various activities and events that grandparents could participate in alongside their grandchildren.
Following the morning assembly, which featured the Eaglebrook Band playing a handful of songs and medleys for the crowd, students and their grandparents went to classes. See the performances by the band here.
After lunch the Head of School, Andrew Chase, gave brief remarks on Eaglebrook past and present, followed by student speeches on what Eaglebrook has meant to them.
In the afternoon, grandparents were able to watch their grandchildren participate in athletic practices and matches. See pictures from the day here.
