Troop 157

Citizenship in the World Merit Badge

We will work on this merit badge over three meetings: 11/21, 11/28, and 12/5. A fourth meeting, 12/19, will be available for makeup by anyone who missed one of the other meetings. A brief quiz will be given at the conclusion of each meeting, covering the material discussed during the meeting. It should be completed and handed in at the meeting. If it is not handed in, or if it does not receive a passing grade, it will need to be worked on at home, and passed in at a future meeting. Be sure to complete the reading assignments in the merit badge pamphlet prior to the meetings on November 28 and December 5.
