Bio-Box Policy
The purpose of the Bio-Box is to provide educators with museum resources when a field trip is not a practical option. BYU biology students and teachers created the Bio-Boxes to help in-service teachers explain difficult biological concepts using hands-on resources from the museum. The ideas and activities in the Bio-Boxes align with the USOE Biology guidelines. These boxes are the culmination of many months of hard work and contain many irreplaceable museum materials. The following are policy for use of this resource:
$25 refundable despot at check-out
Damages not attributed to normal wear and tear will be deducted from the deposit
Check-out period is for two weeks
$5 per day late fee after the the designated due date
When returning the Bio-Box, an appointment must be set up to review the contents of the Bio-Box with a museum employee.
Teachers are expected to check through the inventory for lost of damaged items before returning the Bio-Box to the museum.
Check-out is on Mondays from 3-5 PM and check-in is on Fridays from 3-5 pm
Teachers should fill out a general feedback form

to help us know how to improve the various bio-box activities.
