A scout must earn 21 merit badges to earn his Eagle rank. Of those 21, 12 are required (the other 9 are electives and can be any other Merit Badges offered by the BSA). Of the 12, 2 badges have options: a Scout must earn Emergency Preparedness or Lifesaving; a scout must earn Swimming, Hiking, or Cycling. If a Scout wishes to take a merit badge, they must first find another Scout (the counselor must have at least 2 boys taking the class) then discuss it with the Scoutmaster who will contact the Troop merit badge counselor. For merit badges that do not have a Troop counselor the Scout should try to earn the Merit Badge at summer camp.

Scouts can do this Merit Badge pretty much on their own. When they have completed the worksheet they simpley need to bring it to me and I will review it with them to ensure they did it properly and understood the purpose of earning the badge.
