Science & Technology
Another crucial part of being a leader today and tomorrow is recognizing the important role that science and technology plays in our society. The Girl Scouts exposes girls to relevant and innovative programming that can lead them to discovery. The Girl Scouts of Middle Tennessee offers career clinics that show girls professions that are in high demand and can lead to long-term success. There are also opportunities to engage with partnering organizations that foster imagination and teach the fundamentals of both science and technology both indoors and out. For more information, please contact the program department.

Upcoming Science and Technology Programs:
Ready to become a responsible driver? Here’s your chance to outsmart the boys and learn what’s under the hood of your car! Area girls in 7th-12th grades are invited to join Girl Scouts of Middle Tennessee and Tennessee Technology Centers for a day of hands-on automotive training. Girls will learn from the professionals how fluids, fuses and batteries work, tire care and gas saving strategies and safe driving techniques. On top of the loads of practical skills, girls walk away with car know-how and parents can feel safer when their teen is on the road.
Girls will learn alongside the technology center instructors and students, enjoy lunch and doorprizes, and walk away with a commemorative t-shirt and patch and lots of practical skills. The cost is $15 per participant and financial aid is available.
