Our school-based programs provide the Girl Scout Leadership Experience—STEM, outdoors, life skills, and entrepreneurship—for youth and their caregivers who may otherwise perceive our programs as inaccessible. Offering programs directly at schools allows us to meet youth where they are with consistent, reliable program opportunities in a safe and familiar location. Our curriculum also places special emphasis on robust financial literacy education as a key to personal success and provides an opportunity to participate in the Girl Scout Cookie Program – the largest girl-led entrepreneurial program in the world, an excellent way to gain hands-on money management skills.
School-based programs are a great way to have a troop experience as an afterschool program, and is just one of the many ways to be a Girl Scout!
