Eagle Hill School

About
LIFE-CHANGING

“Since 1997, I have witnessed the life-changing journeys of our students and experienced the greatness of Eagle Hill through the lenses of EHS parents. EHS breathes new life into every aspect of a student’s world.”

—Ms. Erin Wynne, Head of School
Academics
GIFT

“Teaching and learning at their best create a kind of gift economy that relies on the development of genuine relationships. To give a meaningful gift, it is essential to know someone well. To accept a gift also requires the trust and graciousness that are only really possible within the confines of a true interpersonal relationship.”

—Dr. Michael Riendeau, Assistant Head of School for Academic Affairs
Admission
PERSONAL

“In our admission office, we get to know you personally throughout our process. We will work as a team to help you learn about Eagle Hill and to determine, together, if we are that perfect match! We encourage you to call us so that we can begin our conversation and answer all of your questions.”

—Mr. Dana Harbert, Director of Admission
Athletics
COMMITMENT

“At EHS our student-athletes are more committed than ever, and we are seeing how athletics and physical activity have become even more important in our daily routines. Nothing can stop the resilience and positive attitudes we see in our kids, and I’m so proud of both our athletes and our coaches!”

—Mrs. Cindy Coughlin, Athletic Director
Arts
PRIDE

“I always smile when I see students and faculty taking pride in what they do, especially when I see them on our stage, singing, dancing, and acting; or in our studios, creating and making art. EHS is all about getting involved and finding passions."

—Mr. Will Gelinas, Performing Arts Teacher
Student Life
TRANSFORMATIVE

“When students arrive here, they often feel like there are things they cannot or will not be able to do in the classroom or in the dorm. By putting them in a position to succeed academically, socially, and residentially, Eagle Hill changes the way students think about, feel about, and see themselves. Change is too small a word for what happens to students here—“transformed” is a much more befitting term.”

—Dr. Eric Stone, Assistant Head of School for Student Life
Summer
CONNECTIONS

“The summer school program at Eagle Hill is where students meet teachers who understand their need to explore and have fun. The connections you make here last a lifetime. It's a summer experience like no other!”

—Ms. Stephanie Whitaker. Pragmatics Department Chair and Academic Advisor

Clubs and Activities

The spirit of involvement at Eagle Hill School is most evident in our after-school clubs and activities offered throughout the year. In addition to the wide variety of opportunities to pursue personal interests through clubs, theater, music, athletics, community service, and special projects, the school calendar is full of concerts, visiting artists and authors, special dinners, global awareness events, and outdoor movies.

Clubs

Clubs play an important role in our students’ lives outside of the classroom, allowing them to dive into a passion of their choosing. Below is a list of all clubs currently active within our community.

Each year, if a student has an idea for a passion of theirs, it is very common for them to recruit a faculty representative and begin their own club! These clubs are completely collaborated upon by students and faculty members.

Spotlight on Clubs

Weaving Spotlight — Join the fun and get tangled up in creativity with Eagle Hill School’s Weaving Club! What started as a small experiment has grown into a vibrant club where students turn yarn into amazing handwoven pieces—scarves, journal covers, rugs, placemats, and more!

Whether you're a total beginner or a fiber arts fanatic, you can join the Weaving Club and weave something wonderful!

Find Your Club, Find Your People

Clubs may include a wide range of interests such as robotics, rock wall climbing, creative arts, chess, and community service projects.

Activities

There is no shortage of activities on the Eagle Hill campus. Each week we are excited to offer at least one new activity. By partnering with our students to generate ideas and a list of interests, we are able appeal to various audiences. In addition to dorm floor activities, campus activities focus on community building and developing interpersonal awareness. Whether it is making a sundae with your friends, going on a glow-in-the dark scavenger hunt, playing in the floor hockey tournament, or building a replica of a campus building out of gingerbread—there truly is something for everyone.

Activity Spotlight: Floor Hockey Tournament

Since the early 1990s, the annual Floor Hockey Tournament has been one of the school's most beloved traditions! Open to both students and faculty—whether they've played before or not—this fun and fast-paced event brings everyone together. Teams are formed, excitement builds, and players eagerly sign up, lace up their sneakers, and grab their hockey sticks for some friendly competition!
