Age-Level Girl Scout Leaders
UPDATE!
Girl Scouts of the USA is transitioning from five (5) "age-level" program levels to six (6) "grade-level" program levels starting October 1, 2008. The new program levels include: Daisy (grades K-1), Brownie (grades 2-3), Junior (grades 4-5), Cadettes (grades 6,7,8), Seniors (grades 9-10), and Ambassadors (grades 11-12).Girl Scouts of the USA has developed new program materials (Journeys) to go along with the new Girl Scout Leadership Development Experience that will be available for use across the levels starting October 1, 2008.
The 2008-2009 Membership Year will be a transition year for moving from "age-level" to "grade-level".
Thus, as Girl Scout Councils across the country transition from "age to grade" and from the old program materials to new, training requirements and materials will be change. However, during this transition year, leaders will still be required to take the Girl Scouts of Hawai'i Age-Level specific trainings. (see Home-Study Courses below)
