2007-2008 Online Teachers' Guide
Policies and General Information

  •  Arrival time should be at least 15 minutes prior to your first scheduled program. Scheduled programs will not be available for groups arriving more than 10 minutes after their scheduled start time.
  •  Combining Groups. MOSH may combine groups of similar grade levels from different schools into the same program.
  •  Late or no show buses. MOSH cannot be held responsible for buses being late or failing to show. Groups will be charged for scheduled programs that are missed.
  •  A deposit of $50.00 is due 30 days prior to your scheduled program date. If the deposit is not received, your reservation will be automatically canceled. Final payment is due upon arrival.
  •  Cancellations must be made by calling the museum reservationist 30 days prior to your scheduled program date. Groups that cancel programs with less than 30 days notice will forfeit their deposit or the Duval County Prepaid hours that were scheduled.
  •  The maximum number of people allowed in the classrooms cannot be exceeded. Please ask the museum reservationist about maximum classroom capacity when making a reservation. Teachers are responsible for making sure this number is not exceeded on the day of your scheduled visit. Should seating not be available for all chaperones during scheduled programs, those individuals may be asked to tour museum exhibits while their group is attending the program. Chaperones are asked not to bring siblings or tagalongs.
  •  Lunch. There are no indoor or covered lunch facilities in the museum, however there are picnic areas within walking distance along the river walk. They are available on a first come, first serve basis. Please plan accordingly for inclement weather.
  •  Student Behavior. Please remind your students that they are representatives of their school and we ask that, in order for them to get the most from their visit here at MOSH, they be courteous to others and remain on their best behavior. All students, regardless of grade/age, must stay with a chaperone at all times. Classes that are disorderly may be asked to leave without a refund.
