The Contribution of Scouting to Leadership

These are interesting statistics:

In the USA, a Boy Scout today is: 

•    88 percent less likely to drop of out high school.
•    Twice as likely to be a supervisor and leader.
•    Four times more likely to be an FBI agent.
•    Three times more likely to be an astronaut.
•    Twice as likely to graduate as an officer from a national military academy.

At the heart of these ever-growing statistics resides a fundamental set of principles: Leadership, Character, Service, Environmental Stewardship, Achievement.
