The goals of Scouting—citizenship training, character development, and personal fitness—remain important for all Scouts, whether or not they attain the Eagle Scout rank.

Significance:
The fact that a boy is an
Eagle Scout has always carried with it a special significance, not only in
Scouting but also as he enters higher education, business or industry, and
community service. The award is a performance-based achievement whose standards
have been well-maintained over the years. Not every boy who joins a Boy Scout
troop earns the Eagle Scout rank; only about 4 percent of all Boy Scouts do so.
This represents more than 1 million Boy Scouts who have earned the rank since
1911.
