THANKS TO GIRL SCOUT TROOP 16434’S NEWLY CREATED STEAM LAB

Girl Scout Troop 16434, formed nine years ago as kindergarten students at Chesnut Elementary School, has announced today the completion of their Silver Award project, a  STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, Math) Lab, which will benefit the students a Kingswood United Methodist Church Preschool now and in the future.

The Silver Award is the second highest award of the Girl Scouts and one of the highest awards that a Girl Scout Cadette can earn. The four 14-year-old Cadettes in Troop 16434 strategized and created the preschool’s new STEAM Lab by researching what they would like the lab to include, and then meeting with church and school leadership before implementing their plan. Troop 16434 raised funds for the project to come to fruition through a homemade dog treat bake sale and by soliciting community donations. As a result of the diligent and dedicated work of Troop 16434, The Kingswood Preschool students will benefit from weekly STEAM-related lessons in the STEAM Lab.

Congratulations Ladies, great job !!!
