During programs, <strong>Museum</strong> educators encourage teachers<br />

<strong>and</strong> accompanying adults to participate <strong>and</strong> assist. Proper<br />

supervision during free time is also essential to creating<br />

a safe <strong>and</strong> fun atmosphere at the <strong>Museum</strong>. Teachers<br />

<strong>and</strong> supervisors are expected to remain with their<br />

students at all times. Teachers may preview the <strong>Museum</strong><br />

at any time at no cost by presenting proof of their<br />

teaching status at the admission desk.<br />
