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 Wednesday, the competitive ski team traveled to Berkshire East for the first of six Mount Institute Ski League (MISL) races. Eaglebrook competed with a Varsity team, two Junior Varsity teams, and for the first time in school history a girls' Junior Varsity team.
The Varsity team competed in a Giant Slalom event. Despite being down a racer, the team skied well and secured fourth place behind Northfield Mount Hermon School, Deerfield Academy, and Northfield Mount Hermon School Varsity B team. Ben C. '24 was the team's top finisher. Vincent J. '24, and Lucas A. '26 had great finishes as well, aiding the team greatly.
The Junior Varsity teams competed in Slalom this week and secured first and fifth place out of six teams. The JV teams were led by impressive performances by Christian C. '26 (second place), and Caden P. (fifth place).
The girl's JV team placed third and was led by top finisher Maddie F. '26.
The Eaglebrook ski team will compete again next Wednesday 1/24 at Berkshire East.
