There are over 20 students in my son's class. If every parent with a child's sibling just 'walked in' for lunch at any time there could be 60 or more people trying to sit with their child and chaos would reign. If a parent wants to eat with their child, they can schedule and then cancel if unable to meet afterall. I find Bentley Elem. has rules that benefit all students. As a former teacher, I find the teachers, curriculum, administration, staff and programs (centers, computer skills that reinforce learning activities and individualization, Reading Counts, Orchestra, clubs, etc.) successfully prepare my son for future educational endeavors and life by an emphasis on academics, socialization and citizenship.

There are things that i like about Bentley, & things I really despise!!! Please tell me why we are 1 of the only Elementary schhols in Seminole Co that has to give 24 hrs notice to have lunch with your child?!?!?! Every friend of mine with children can walk into the school any time they like to have lunch with their child! They also bring the sibling!!! Not at Bentley. With my husbands schedule it is very difficult to plan sometimes!! What gives Bentley??? I really suggest you re-think this Mr. Nathan. Also, why is when you have to do something at the school they treat you like the plague if you bring a sibling???? What shall we do leave them in the car?? I'm not happy with Bentley these past 2 yrs at all!!!!!

I feel my child is not getting the attention she needs to grow in her own way. My child was in VPK . She has learned how to read already. She has been past the basics since pre-school. However she is in a class with kids who don't even know how to recognize their name. I am scared she will fall backward or become bored in her education.
