What would happen if every child in a community were a Scout? Our partnership with Goucher Charter Academy puts that idea into practice, embedding Scouting into the school day for approximately 311 students. Elementary students are registered Cub Scouts, and middle school students are Explorers, with Scouting providing the school’s character education framework. At a school where more than three-quarters of students live in poverty, this partnership demonstrates how we can expand access to Scouting while helping a community prepare its children for success.
