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 Saturday, Varsity swimming and diving travelled to the hallowed halls of Phillips Andover Academy to swim against a difficult opponent. In fact, Andover is the last team to beat the Eaglebrook squad in a dual meet, many years ago. As the team entered the Andover natatorium it was apparent that the Andover team had a large number of upperclassmen, juniors and seniors on their team. The Eaglebrook team swam very well could not match up with the more mature Andover team. Declan Cullinane continued his improvement, swimming his fastest 50-freestyle and contributing in two relays. Michael Chiang swam his first 500-yard freestyle finishing third. He is looking forward to swimming it again on Wednesday. Leon Leung swam an amazing breaststroke leg during the opening 200-yard medal relay, and then won the 100-yard breaststroke. Also, Milo Walshe swam his first 200-Individual medley. He, too, is preparing to improve his performance on Wednesday. The diving tandem of Anthony Lo and Thomas Eglin continued their dominate performance by placing first and second. The Eaglebrook team competes against Deerfield and NMH at home on Wednesday and at Westminster on Saturday. Come out and see the boys compete!
