At Eagle Hill, we don’t talk about learning disabilities—we talk about learning.
Students can only truly be seen, understood, and flourish as individuals when we set aside categories such as dyslexic and disabled to seek in earnest the individual genius of each person.
Learn
At Eagle Hill School, we are pioneers, ready to explore with a sense of wonder and possibility each day in the classroom.
Our flexible nine-term academic year is individualized for each student, and a course of study is developed by each student and his or her family, academic advisor, and the teachers with whom he or she is working.
Live
Dormitories are not merely places to sleep but also places to learn.
Eagle Hill School strives to provide an appropriate balance between fostering independence and providing structure, support, and guidance for each individual student. All of our dorm counselors receive training to become certified life coaches.
Thrive
Each student comes to Eagle Hill School with a unique set of interests and talents, and EHS takes every opportunity to explore and nurture those gifts.
Eagle Hill students are afforded virtually unlimited opportunities to get involved in the life of a vibrant campus.
Become
With a newfound sense of self-esteem and balance, Eagle Hill School alumni/ae actively seek and confidently rise to future challenges.
They are Pioneers!
A community that honors individual genius and values diversity.
Located in Hardwick, Massachusetts, Eagle Hill School believes that every adult who interacts with a student is a teacher. A day in the life of our students finds them surrounded by a network of more than 150 members of our faculty and staff, ensuring that all students are encouraged to become the best version of themselves.
