Georgia Museums, Inc. and Cartersville School System
Partnership Agreement

Georgia Museum, Inc. includes the Bartow History Center, Booth Western Art Museum, and Resource Center/Science and Art Center to be replaced by Tellus: Northwest Georgia Science Museum when it opens.

Admission is during regular hours of operation.  Limitations:  The purpose of this partnership is specifically to enrich classroom instruction for CSS students and teachers and excludes admission to educational programs not conducted on GMI premises, special events, exclusive member events, summer camps, enrichment classes, or general visitation to the Museums. 
Admission is for teachers and students only and does not include parents, family members, friends, etc.

Teachers can:

1. Book an established school program by contacting the GMI scheduling office at 770-607-3686.  The number of students GMI can accommodate at each location on any given day varies, and teachers are encouraged to book programs early to ensure availability.  Teachers should give 45 days notice prior to canceling a scheduled program.

2. Develop your own program and conduct it at the Bartow History Center, Booth Western Art Museum, or Tellus, when it opens.  Please be sure to wear your school system identification badge and sign in at the front desk while developing your own teaching units or conducting research at GMI.  When a CSS teacher brings students to GMI for a program based on a teaching unit they've developed, the visit must be booked through the GMI scheduling office in order to avoid scheduling conflicts with groups and maintain a quality experience for all visitors.

3. Assign independent research projects to students to be researched at GMI.  Research areas have separate hours and may require an appointment.  Individual students or classes that are assigned research projects by CSS teachers can have access to GMI facilities if the teacher provides the Museum's education department with the project title, beginning and ending date for the assignment and a list of students.  Students must be on the list provided by the teacher.  Access to GMI research facilities (library/archives) is by appointment and under the supervision of the Museum's librarian or archivist.
