Eagle Scout is the highest rank attainable in the Boy Scouts of America program. Since its inception in 1911, only four percent of Scouts have earned this rank after a lengthy review process. Over 2.5 million youth have earned the rank.

Requirements include earning at least 21 merit badges, 14 of which are mandatory for the award.

An Eagle Scout must demonstrate Scout spirit, an ideal attitude based upon the Scout Oath and Law, service, and leadership.

This includes an extensive service project that the Scout plans, organizes, leads, and manages. Eagle Scouts are presented with a medal and a badge that visibly recognizes their accomplishments.

Additional recognition can be earned through Eagle Palms, awarded for completing additional tenure, leadership, and merit badge requirements.

An official Eagle Court of Honor Ceremony will be held tentatively in January or May  2025.
