SeeSaw provides a glimpse into your child's classroom and all parents should have received an invite from their teacher.  Parents are greater connected with their children's academic progress by using these online systems as they can view missed assignments, test scores and connect with teachers whenever needed.

Bentley School organizes parent teacher interviews three times per year. Early interviews are at the beginning of October and parents are not required to book an appointment. This is a great way to meet your child's teacher and become familiar with your child's learning environment. Scheduled parent teacher interviews are in the middle of November (Gr. K-12), middle of March (Gr. K-12). Parents use an online system to book interviews with their child's teacher(s).
