We encourage ALL educators to visit the museum before visiting with your students to examine our exhibits and programs, as they help support your in-class science and math curricula. Download the coupon below and bring it with you when you visit.

We are hiring dedicated educators to present informal, hands-on science and math camps, workshops and classes, to be taught at the Children's Museum and Science Center afternoon/evenings, weekends, during intersession and in the summer.

The Museum Director and Curator of Education retain the right to accept or reject any proposal. Acceptance of the proposal indicates interest rather than approval. A more detailed plan must be submitted and evaluated before final approval is granted.

We at the CMSC invite YOU to become an important part of shaping our future by volunteering to be a member of our NEW Educator's Advisory Committee.

We need your input and participation to ensure that the CMSC meets your needs and the needs of your students. In order to keep our programs educational, fun and supplemental to the NC required science and math curricula, we need help from the experts - the adults and students for whom the programs are ultimately created. We are looking for feedback from dedicated educators to help us refine existing elements of our programs, as well as develop new ones. If you would like to participate in the CMSC Educator's Advisory Board please fill out an Interest Form at the Museum or call the museums' Curator of Education at (252) 972-1367. We need your involvement so that the Rocky Mount Children's Museum and Science Center continues to meet and exceed expectations.
