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 first swim meet of the season was a total success. Suffield Academy met the boys at home and our athletes certainly rose to the challenge. Multiple individual wins came from our strongest swimmers. Laith Hijazi took first in both the 200 and 500 free, the longest events we race. Sixth Former Andrew Brooks took gold in the 200 IM and 100 fly. Other breakout swims came from newcomers Marquis Wong and Declan Cullinane, both boys sprinted in for wins in there respective 50 freestyle heats. Solo diver Anthony Lo pitted himself one against three and in six dives scored close to 200 points, this effort gave Mr. Lo second place behind a Suffield diver. Up and comer Jeff Lim has shown his potential early on with impressive races, and our very own Zo Williams is out proving he is not just a top water polo goalie. Look for more action in the pool when we return from break.
