HOW TO SCHEDULE A PROGRAM:

To schedule a program at Teaching Museum South (TMS), teachers need to access a scheduling form from the FCSS’ Public Folders area. After completing the form, teachers should email scheduling requests to ElmoreL@fulton.k12.ga.us.  Upon receipt, Mrs. Elmore will communicate via email and/or telephone with the booking teacher to finalize the scheduling request.

    FIELD TRIP REQUEST FORMS (FTRF):
All field trip request forms are submitted electronically by Teaching Museum South and your school’s Field Trip Coordinator .

Once Teaching Museum South submits the FTRF, Mrs. Elmore will:

  E-Mail the booking teacher, as well as the Field Trip Coordinator, at your school.
