Weekends and Activities

Summer Fun at Eagle Hill!

 

When Friday comes, the fun continues! Several trips and adventures are offered each day of the weekend—Friday night through Sunday. 

“Eagle Hill’s summer program turned my son’s life around. Period. Jonah had struggled with school for years before attending the program. Eagle Hill’s summer program changed everything! Eagle Hill afforded Jonah the confidence he needed to attack school with gusto and invaluable study skills necessary to support his newfound motivation. ”

Afternoon/Evening Activities

Afternoon activities and evening clubs are designed for maximum summer fun! Each afternoon, a choice of sporting or recreational activities is offered to every student with the opportunity to try something new or participate in a familiar activity.

In addition, a range of clubs makes the evenings an adventure! By giving students the chance to be part of a team or club, we foster the ideals of sharing, trust, sportsmanship, and tolerance. Friendships develop over shared interests and students gain confidence in their abilities.

Summer Weekends

Eagle Hill School understands that academic work can be rigorous and taxing—free time to unwind is essential! Our Director of Weekend Services offers new and exciting trips, experiences, and activities every Friday night, Saturday, and Sunday of our summer session. 

Students select their own Friday and Sunday activities from a wide array of choices. They may choose to go on our off-campus excursions, or remain on campus to either attend the activities offered or take advantage of the opportunities our facilities provide by swimming, working out in the fitness center, ordering takeout with their dorm floor, or gaming with friends in our student union.

Saturdays feature carefully planned, all-day community adventures that showcase the best of New England's nature, history, and culture. Trips are chaperoned by Eagle Hill faculty who love spending time with students outside of the classroom.
