East Bay School for Boys

Founded in 2010 and enrolling 100 students in grades 6/7/8, EBSB's Mission is to empower middle school boys to cultivate their intellectual, physical, and emotional selves to become the engaged, thoughtful, and courageous men of tomorrow.

While perhaps best known for its innovative Work program (21st Century shop class), EBSB's creative and rigorous academic program dives deeply into the humanities, math, science, Spanish, and physical education. Students also benefit from music, Capoeira, electives, sports and more.

Key Aspects of EBSB:

ACTIVE, ENGAGED LEARNING 
East Bay School for Boys believes boys engage and learn more in an active, hands-on learning environment. Our Work program is at the cutting edge of the Maker Education. Coupled with outdoor education and service learning, students design, build, and nurture their world and grow to love learning!

DIVERSITY, EQUITY, AND SOCIAL JUSTICE
We strive to create a school community that reflects and celebrates the racial, cultural, and socioeconomic diversity of the Bay Area. 

Almost half of our student body and faculty/staff are people of color. Half of the families receive tuition assistance. We teach an anti-racist curriculum, facilitate affinity groups, and practice restorative justice.

REDEFINING MANHOOD
We seek to expand the concept of manhood as defined by popular culture. EBSB students develop a sense of identity not from what a “man is supposed to be,” but rather by challenging themselves, learning from mistakes, expressing emotions with respect, caring for others, and standing up for justice.
