Girl Scout Ambassador, Deandra Rose, received notification on March 26, that the Teen U Gold Award Project final report was approved by the Girl Scouts Diamonds of Arkansas, Oklahoma and Texas Gold Award Committee. Rose will be presented with the Gold Award Pin and certificate at the awards luncheon in June at the Clinton Presidential Center in Little Rock.
Rose presented Teen U (You) “The Other College Prep” at the Atlanta Independent School District board of trustees meeting on Feb 25.
