Student Leadership

Community Engagement

At Eagle Hill School, student life goes beyond the classroom, offering opportunities for growth, independence, and connection. Our community encourages students to develop practical skills that will serve them in college and beyond. Whether they’re participating in campus activities, building friendships, or taking on leadership roles, each experience contributes to their personal development and prepares them for future success.

Campus engagement is an important aspect of life at Eagle Hill. Students have many opportunities to get involved in clubs, events, and activities that match their interests, allowing them to build connections and contribute to the school community. Whether it's participating in study group discussions, helping organize social events, or volunteering for various campus and off-campus initiatives, students are encouraged to actively engage with their surroundings and peers.

Student leadership plays a key role in this engagement. Students are invited to take on leadership responsibilities, such as mentoring others, planning activities, advocating for their classmates, and performing community service. These opportunities help students build communication, teamwork, and problem-solving skills.

Through campus engagement and leadership, students gain valuable experiences that help them grow personally and prepare for the future.

Food Drive

"I wanted to find a way to connect with and help our neighboring communities. The idea of a food drive seemed like a perfect way to bring our Eagle Hill community together while supporting those in need.”

David F. Class of 2026

Opportunities for Students

Community Service

Giving Back at Eagle Hill

Community service is an integral part of life at Eagle Hill School, providing students with meaningful opportunities to give back while building responsibility, making a difference, and having fun along the way! Through partnerships with local organizations, on-campus initiatives, and student-led projects, students engage in service activities that make a real impact.

Whether volunteering at local food banks and animal shelters, organizing donation drives, or working on environmental initiatives, students develop a deeper understanding of their role in the world around them. These experiences not only strengthen their connection to the community but also help build important life skills that carry into college and beyond.

Eagle Hill students must fulfill forty hours of community service to graduate.

New Student Orientation Leader

Become a Leader

After completing a rigorous (and fun!) three-day training, our orientation leaders are ready to welcome and guide new students with engaging presentations and activities. This helps newcomers adjust smoothly to life at Eagle Hill. From academic tips to the best ways to dive into student life, they make sure everyone feels right at home.

But it’s not just about learning the ropes—it’s also a great way to make connections! It’s a great way to build a strong, supportive community from the start, starting new friendships and setting a positive tone for the entire year ahead.

Student Council

Campus Engagement

Student Council is all about bringing students together, boosting school spirit, and making campus life more exciting! Made up of five executive board members and 20 to 30 student representatives, this group of students work hard to make sure there's always something fun and engaging happening around campus.

The executive board includes committee heads responsible for community service, snack bar management, and public relations. Student reps choose a committee to join and work closely with their executive board counterparts. The board meets weekly to chat about student feedback, brainstorm new ideas, and keep things running smoothly with their committees.

In addition to organizing all-school meetings, the Student Council coordinates various student activities, promoting school spirit and engaging the campus community. Highlights of their events include Spirit Weeks, Winter Carnival, the Super Bowl party, 100-Day Party, Halloween celebrations, and dorm competitions such as the Gingerbread House Making Contest.

Joining Student Council provides students a great opportunity to get involved on campus, contribute ideas, and make a positive difference in student life.

Eagle Hill School offers students the chance to apply for yearlong internships in the arts and athletics, providing real-life experience and course credit.

Interns in technical theater manage lighting, sound, and rigging systems for productions. They undergo training and take on roles like consulting with artists, designing technical setups, and running technical operations.

Arts Management Interns
Arts management interns help with event marketing, box office operations, and arts administration tasks. They work on projects like creating social media content, writing press releases, and designing surveys. Interns also complete a final project imagining their own performing arts venue.

Girls Leadership

Empowering Girls

The Eagle Hill Girls’ Leadership Club meets weekly to encourage connection, mentorship, and community among the girls at the school. Centered around themes of femininity, strength, community, and identity, members participate in activities and reflective discussions.

Through conversation and a sense of unity, the girls explore women's leadership roles, mentoring younger peers, and serving the community. They openly discuss fears, anxieties, or concerns and are encouraged to journal their individual thoughts and experiences.

IB Study Groups

IB Study Groups gather in the PJM STEM Center, where students can work together on their International Baccalaureate coursework. These study sessions provide a supportive environment for sharing ideas, tackling challenging concepts, and preparing for exams as a team.

The Andresen Library at PJM STEM Center offers a collaborative space equipped with all the resources they may need.

Peer Mentors

Peer mentors are selected by faculty and staff for their ability to support students in their transition to Eagle Hill School.
Peer mentors are trained on the effective approaches to building relationships, setting goals, and motivating students to take the steps necessary to establish their connection to EHS.
Students are matched with mentors who can create a connection that enhances their integration to Eagle Hill.

* Students interested in becoming a peer mentor or learning more about the program should contact Mr. Francoeur.

Summer Interns

Current students at Eagle Hill School have the opportunity to participate in a paid five-week summer internship where they serve as role models for younger participants in the summer program. These student interns assist faculty and act as leaders in various roles throughout the summer.

Summer interns play a important role in creating a fun and engaging experience for our summer session students. They work alongside the student life team, leading team-building activities, assisting teachers in classrooms, organizing and setting up events, and helping students settle into dorm life. Interns support students as they move in at the start of the session and again when they move out at the end.

Additionally, they serve as guides for incoming Pioneers, offering them a warm welcome before they officially begin school in September.
