Organizations Filed Purposes: EAGLE HILL SCHOOL IS A COEDUCATIONAL BOARDING SCHOOL THAT EDUCATES STUDENTS WITH LEARNING DISABILITIES, INCLUDING ATTENTION DEFICIT DISORDER, IN GRADES EIGHT THROUGH TWELVE. EAGLE HILL STUDENTS DEMONSTRATE AVERAGE TO ABOVE AVERAGE COGNITIVE ABILITY AND ARE MOTIVATED TO EXPLORE ACADEMIC AND INTELLECTUAL PURSUITS IN A SUPPORTIVE ENVIRONMENT. ALTHOUGH EAGLE HILL ENCOURAGES EMOTIONAL AND BEHAVIORAL GROWTH, IT DOES NOT ACCEPT STUDENTS WITH PRIMARY CONCERNS IN THESE AREAS. EAGLE HILL DRAWS ITS STUDENTS FROM ACROSS THE US AND THE INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY, BRINGING A WELCOME DIVERSITY TO THE CAMPUS.

EDUCATION SERVICES FOR THE ACADEMIC YEAR WHICH RUNS FROM SEPTEMBER TO JUNE. OVER THE COURSE OF THE ACADEMIC YEAR SERVICES WERE ADMINISTERED TO 215 RESIDENTIAL AND 15 DAY STUDENTS. UNCOMPROMISING STANDARDS OF ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE, COMBINED WITH A SCHOOL STRUCTURE AND CULTURE THAT FOSTER DIFFERENTIATED INSTRUCTION BASED ON INDIVIDUAL NEEDS, CREATE THE IDEAL ENVIRONMENT IN WHICH YOUNG MINDS CAN PREPARE FOR COLLEGE. THE DEVELOPMENT OF CRITICAL THINKING SKILLS IS AS IMPORTANT AS THE MASTERY OF FACTS AND FIGURES AS STUDENTS ARE PREPARED TO BE INTELLECTUALLY ENGAGED CITIZENS. IN CREATING AN ENVIRONMENT THAT FOSTERS THIS LEVEL OF ACADEMIC AND SOCIAL SUCCESS, CAREFUL ATTENTION IS GIVEN TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF EACH STUDENT'S UNIQUE COURSE SCHEDULE. BY DESIGNING COURSES BASED ON AGE, DEMONSTRATED SKILL LEVELS, AND LEARNING PREFERENCES, EAGLE HILL ENSURES THAT EACH STUDENT IS PLACED IN A POSITION TO TAKE FULL ADVANTAGE OF THE ACADEMIC CULTURE. MULTISENSORY APPROACHES ARE USED ACROSS THE CURRICULUM TO REINFORCE LEARNING AND THINKING, AND EVERY STUDENT AT EAGLE HILL BENEFITS FROM AN INTEGRATED STUDY SKILLS CURRICULUM THAT ENCOURAGES EACH STUDENT TO DEVELOP A METHOD FOR SUCCESS.

EDUCATION SERVICES FOR SUMMER SCHOOL STUDENTS RUNS FIVE WEEKS BEGINNING IN JULY ACCOMMODATING 77 RESIDENTIAL SUMMER STUDENTS AND 11 DAY STUDENTS AGES 10-18 WHO HAVE BEEN DIAGNOSED WITH LEARNING DISABILITIES. THE SUMMER SESSION IS PRIMARILY DESIGNED TO STRENGTHEN ACADEMIC AND SOCIAL SKILLS WHILE MAINTAINING PROGRESS ACHIEVED DURING THE ACADEMIC YEAR. ELECTIVE AND SPORTS ACTIVITIES ARE COMBINED WITH ACADEMIC COURSES TO ADDRESS THE NEEDS OF THE WHOLE PERSON IN A CAMP-LIKE ATMOSPHERE. THE SUMMER SESSION IS ALSO A GREAT WAY FOR NEW STUDENTS ENTERING EHS IN SEPTEMBER TO BECOME ACQUAINTED WITH THE CAMPUS, THE FACULTY, AND THEIR PEERS. CLASS SIZE IS KEPT SMALL AS IT IS DURING THE ACADEMIC YEAR. WITH AN AVERAGE CLASSROOM RATIO OF SIX STUDENTS TO ONE TEACHER, ATTENTION IS FOCUSED AND PRODUCTIVITY IS MAXIMIZED. EAGLE HILL EMPHASIZES INDIVIDUAL ATTENTION, AND THE STUDENT TO TEACHER RATIO ENSURES THAT TEACHERS ARE ABLE TO FOCUS ON INDIVIDUAL STUDENT'S SKILLS, INTERESTS, AND TALENTS.
