Museum in the Classroom
Museum in the Classroom is a traveling exhibit that will convert your gymnasium into a Natural History Museum.
Your students will experience first-rate exhibit without ever leaving your campus. No more buses, rushed visits, permission slips or excluded grade levels. Your entire student body can experience a world-class exhibit in your own facility.
This exhibit is not only exciting; it is highly educational. A comprehensive curriculum for grades
Kinder through 6th grade, written in both Spanish and English, is available for all participating
schools. Each curriculum covers numerous TEKS. Click here to access our curriculum, or cut and paste the webs address for access. http://www.klrnconnect.blogspot.com/p/dinosaur-george.html
Museum in the Classroom is a self-guided exhibit where your teachers will lead their students
through at their own pace. It takes approximately 45 minutes to experience the exhibit, but you can
decide how long each group can stay. And the large, easy to read, signs will insure that your students
have a complete understanding of each exhibit piece.

What We Require
Due to the size and scope of the exhibit, we have certain
requirements that
are necessary to insure your event is as exciting as possible.
• We will need access to your gym for two days. Setup will
take place the day prior to your event
date. Removal of the exhibit will take
place immediately after the school day ends.
Setup and removal generally takes 4
to 6 hours. In the event that your school chooses to open
the exhibit
to the public after school hours, removal of the exhibit will take place the following
morning. There is an additional fee to keep the exhibit open to the public
after normal school
hours.
• Your gym must have roll-up doors or double doors where
the center pole can be removed to
accommodate our large crates. If unavailable,
we may not be able to display our larger exhibit
pieces.
• We will need the ability to pull our trucks and
trailers up to your gym doors. In the case of
inclement weather, or your facility layout prevents us from being able to drive up to the gym
doors, we
will need unobstructed access via paved or concrete walkways leading to your
gym.
• Doors to gym must remain locked and secured during all
non-operating hours.
Unaccompanied students are not allowed in the exhibit
unless approved by school
administrators or teachers.
• Although we take every precaution to protect your
facility floor from damage, it is possible
that marking or marring is possible
on hardwood, specialty or delicate floors.
The Cost
The cost to bring this incredible exhibit your school is only $3,500.00, plus travel fees if outside
of San Antonio, TX. This includes a full day for your students to experience the exhibit
as well as the set up and removal of the exhibit by our staff.
• Want the exhibit for more than one school day? You can schedule the exhibit for a fee of
$800.00 per additional day.
• A deposit of at least $1,000.00 is required at least 30 days prior to your event date.
• Under certain circumstances, we offer funding support or our matching funds program to
assist you in bringing Museum in the Classroom to your school.
• Partner with area schools to share the expense, or invite other schools and charge an
admission fee.
• Turn your event into a FUND-RAISER! In an effort to help you recover your investment,
or even make a profit, you can invite the general public to experience Museum in the Classroom
during the evening of your scheduled event date. You decide the admission fees, determine how
long you want to stay open, and keep all the profits you make. There is an additional $300 fee
to cover the payroll costs for our staff if you choose to do this.
