So many school principals, whether new or experienced, simply don't know that Scouting is an educational resource for their students. In many schools, we're seen as "just another club" or someone else wanting access to their students for their activity. In order to stand apart from the rest, we should have a resource geared towards school administrators to educate them on the values of Scouting, the content and purposes of each of our programs (Cubs, Boy Scouts, Venturing, etc.), the benefits of Scouting (as determined in the Harris and other studies), and how we can have a partnership with the school. We have a lot of great resources out there, but one single resource to provide the schools would present a strong selling point and a door-opener to some strong potential. This can be further developed based on public and non-parochial private schools, Christian schools, military schools, etc.

The National Education Task Force is working on Public School access ideas. With the help of Marketing we are working to develop several different helps that a local council can use to gain greater access to schools. Materials designed for use with principals will be coming in the future.
