Mailboxes
Each family and staff member has a mailbox on the lower level of the school. Please check your Family Mailbox daily for school and parent communication. Please remind your child that these are for communication purposes and not for storing items and food in.

Parent / Teacher Conferences
The Museum School has a unique teaching structure for an elementary school in that our students work with multiple teachers each day. We value this approach tremendously as it offers our students many rich teaching styles, and allows our staff to become intimately acquainted with the academic and social needs of all our students. Logistically, this makes it too difficult for us to schedule a week of conferences with all our students and all their teachers. Instead parents will have a regularly scheduled conference with your child's homeroom teacher during the week of November 16th - 19th. In addition, we would like you to know that, with reasonable notice, you may schedule a conference for your child at any time during the school year. There may be times when a staff member may request a conference also. Typically a week's notice is sufficient to plan for a conference.

Helping with Homework
The most important action you can take for our school is to provide the supports your child needs with schoolwork. Please take the time to make sure your child's homework is completed with care. Spend time talking about the books your child is reading and the books you are reading. Showing you care about your child's studies encourages him or her to care more and leads to success. Please check your child's planner each day to see what they are expected to work on. We also require that a parent signs the planner at the end of each week.

Chaperones
Each Thursday we will devote three hours to our departments to provide students with the opportunity to make focused visits to museums, the zoo and other venues in the area. We need chaperones that can commit to joining a department from 9:45 am to 1:15 pm. If you are interested and available, please contact the office and let us know your schedule.

Morning Materials
Our teachers and office staff often need help with clerical work, including putting materials together, filing, copying and a variety other things. One way you can help is by checking in in the morning to see if there is something that needs doing. Join other volunteers during the week (at any time during the day) to work on a collection of items that teachers and staff may set aside for you. If you are interested, contact Jane Perry at museumschooloffice@gmail.com

Morning Drop-off
We could use some help overseeing the morning drop off in front of the school. If you have an extra 15 minutes in the morning between 8:45 and 9:00, check in with Phil to let us know.

Visiting procedure

If you would like to vist the school during the school day, please check in at the office and sign the Visitor's Book so we know who is on campus. Please respect the teacher's need to focus on their classes during the school day. If you would like to meet with a teacher, please schedule an appointment with them directly via email, or by request through Jane or Phil in the office.
