Girl Scouts Getting with the Times, Offering New Badges
Girl Scouts are getting new badge options focused on science, tech and the outdoors.
FOX’s Tonya J. Powers has the story:
Engineering, math, science, technology and the outdoors, serious categories for Girl Scout badges, but they’re the basis for some serious fun too.
Girl Scouts will have a chance to earn 23 new badges through activities like programming robots, designing model race cars and writing code.
The group’s CEO, Sylvia Acevedo, a former Scout, took over in May, and was previously an engineer and worked for NASA, as well as IBM and Dell.
The new STEM badges come a month after the group added cyber-security badges.
