Fall Family Weekend 2025 Brings Families Together at Eagle Hill School

Families reconnect and celebrate learning as a community at Eagle Hill’s annual Fall Family Weekend

Our campus was vibrant with energy and connection this past weekend during Fall Family Weekend 2025, held Thursday, October 23, through Sunday, October 26, at Eagle Hill School. Families traveled from near and far to spend time with students, meet teachers, and experience life at Eagle Hill. The four-day celebration combined energy, belonging, and purpose—the spirit of the Eagle Hill experience.

The weekend began Thursday evening with an introduction to the College Counseling Office for families of juniors, followed by a welcoming parent reception in the WHIKS. The evening concluded with a cozy fireside singalong and s’mores with JAM Band and Mr. Leyva, setting the stage for a weekend filled with warmth and connection.

Fall Family Weekend 2025 once again highlighted Eagle Hill’s unique community—a place where students, families, and educators come together to celebrate growth, connection, and lifelong learning.

Friday, October 24, offered a full day of academic engagement and thoughtful conversation. After parents attended teacher conferences, families attended The Gift of Failure presentation by best-selling author Jessica Lahey, followed by a book signing and informal discussions in the Cultural Center. Parents also attended college preparation panels and enjoyed the family selfie station with games on the Quad. The day concluded with spirited community moments at the Pioneer “Tailgate,” a Boys’ Varsity Soccer match, and an evening of laughter during Family Fun Night’s Musical Bingo.

Saturday, October 25, blended school spirit and family fun. Parents joined the breakfast buffet before cheering on Eagle Hill’s athletic teams, including Crew at Lake Wickaboag, Girls’ Varsity Volleyball, and Girls’ Varsity Soccer. Families also enjoyed outdoor games, creative crafts, and another College Admission Panel for Juniors. The evening wrapped with a festive community meal, Dinner at Mystery Manor, bringing everyone together once more for food, conversation, and celebration.

A farewell brunch in Chapman Dining Commons on Sunday morning allowed families to share goodbyes and reflect on a memorable few days on campus. Fall Family Weekend 2025 once again highlighted Eagle Hill’s unique community—a place where students, families, and educators come together to celebrate growth, connection, and lifelong learning.
