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 Brookies made the hour and forty-minute drive to Salisbury to take on the Crimson Knights. Salisbury graciously included a few Varisty Knights in the lineup to give the Brookies some strong competition. It was Eaglebrook's most challenging match to date, and the Eaglebrook Squash Program would like to reiterate their immense gratitude. Of all 9 matches played, 5 matches went to the max of five games. Of those games, Eaglebrook earned 3 wins and Salisbury earned 2. The competition was tight! The No. 2 match was a nail-biter that could have gone in any direction. Eaglebrook was down 2-0 to start and won the next three games, but not without a fight from the Knights's No. 2 player. The overall game day score was 5-4 to the Brookies if all matches were to be counted, or 4-3 if the top 7 are counted (which is traditional). It was a great day of squash for both sides, and it is a match that the Brookies look forward to playing again next year. The team now sets its sights on its neighbor, Deerfield Academy, which will no doubt be another challenging opponent.
