Why is the Girl Scout Leadership Experience changing from age levels to grade levels?
Girls say it’s important to be with other girls their age and they identify with social groups based on grades. Research also found that girls learn best and have the most fun when they are with the right developmental/ social grouping. The new grade levels address the charge of intentionally creating differentiated Girl Scout experiences that mirror girls’ developmental needs.
