Girl Scouts of Central Texas

Girl Scouts is the world's largest organization dedicated to empowering girls to be leaders.  In partnership with adult volunteers, girls develop leadership skills, strong values, social conscience, and conviction about their own potential and self-worth.

Girl Scouts of Central Texas (GSCTX) serves more than 20,000 girls, grades K-12, and nearly 12,000 adult volunteers in 46 Central Texas Counties.

GIRL SCOUT COUNCIL VISION

To provide the best outcomes-based leadership opportunities for girls.  To accomplish this, we provide by girl, for girl programming that prepares girls to:
  • Lead with courage by speaking out on issues they care about and taking active roles in their communities.
  • Lead with confidence by making the most of their strengths and feeling empowered to make a difference in their lives and beyond.
  • Lead with character by acting with integrity and compassion, making decisions that promote the well-being of themselves and others.

The EDGE offers unique programs and workshops designed to get girls excited about science, technology, engineering and math.  Participants have access to IBM Pentium desktop computers with high-speed Internet and a full suite of Microsoft software.  They also have access to digital cameras, microscopes, and color printers.

Girl Scout Robotics Teams
Girl Scouts are learning valuable life skills as they discover how to build and program robots.  Under the guidance of mentors, girls experiment with new techniques and learn from the outcomes.  Girl Scouts who participate in robotics teams discover their ability to succeed with technology while developing strong teamwork skills.  We have both FLL teams and FRC teams.
