As Cadette, Senior, and Ambassador Girl Scouts, tweens and teens can connect with their peers, create experiences, swap ideas, share thoughts and immerse themselves in interests that often lead to careers and lifetime occupations. And they can blaze their own pathways in an environment that builds self-esteem as well as a growing respect for the needs of others. Cadettes are in grades 6 through 8, Seniors are in grades 9 and 10, and Ambassadors are in grades 11 and 12. Girls work on a range of projects together under the guidance of trained adults. And, of course, they continue earning interest projects. Everything from conflict resolution to aerospace can be explored with badge work, which makes Girl Scouting relevant to girls of all backgrounds and ambitions.

We encourage girls to find their own style with the various uniform components available through Girl Scouts of Connecticut retail shops. They include sporty T-shirts, polo-shirts, V-necks, khaki pants, shorts, or skirts. The Girl Scout Membership Pin (and the WAGGS Pin) can be worn on clothing over the heart on the left side.

Girls may keep the same vest or sash throughout the older girl levels. Find out where to place insignia for Cadettes, Seniors, and Ambassadors.
