The Eagle Rank

Each Boy Scout, by meeting specific requirements, advances through ranks called Tenderfoot, Second Class, and First Class. A First Class Scout may earn merit badges and demonstrate leadership to qualify as a Star Scout, a Life Scout, and eventually, after leading a project which serves the community, a Eagle Scout. Eagle palms are given for merit badges earned beyond the Eagle requirements. The Eagle Rank is the second highest rank a boy can attain in Scouting.

The Ranger Scout (Venturing Scouts and Quater Master (Sea Scouts) are tied for the highest.

Though females may not earn the Eagle Rank, they can earn both Ranger and Quartermaster.
