The Girl Scout Bronze Award is the highest award a Girl Scout Junior in grades 4-5 can earn . When girls work toward earning their Girl Scout Bronze Award , they uncover the important lessons in what it takes to leave a meaningful legacy in their community . After completing a Junior-level Girl Scout Journey , girls are encouraged to identify issues they care about and explore the needs of their surrounding communities . The Girl Scout Junior builds a team with fellow Junior Girl Scouts ( or chooses to go solo !) to develop a plan and complete a Take Action Project of 20 or more hours to earn the Girl Scout Bronze Award .
