Congratulations to the fourth and fifth grade Junior Girl Scouts Troop 2055 for earning a Bronze Award for their project about sea turtles! Under the guidance of Gina Pabalan and Jignasha Jani, the girls produced a wonderful video about sea turtles, explaining why they are important, the threats that they encounter and what we can do to help. The Girl Scout Bronze Award is the highest honor a Girl Scout Junior can achieve. To earn it, each girl must demonstrate commitment to helping others, improve the community and the world…and become the best she can be. Well done, Troop 2055!
