Summary

Bentworth Senior High School is a public high school located in Bentleyville, Pennsylvania, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 354 students. The school is part of the Bentworth School District, which is ranked 269 out of 606 school districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Bentworth Senior High School has maintained consistently high four-year graduation rates, ranging from 87.5% to 93.9% in recent years, which is on par with or better than nearby schools. The school has also seen relatively low dropout rates, ranging from 0.3% to 1.6%. However, its performance on the Keystone Exams has been mixed, with proficiency rates varying across different subject areas and student subgroups. While the school's overall Keystone Exam performance is generally on par with or slightly below the state average, it is notably higher than some of the nearby schools, such as Brownsville Area High School and Monessen Senior High School.

One notable trend at Bentworth Senior High School is the significant increase in the percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, from 32.85% in 2021-2022 to 100% in 2023-2024. This suggests that the school's student population is becoming increasingly economically disadvantaged, which may have implications for the school's resources, support services, and overall academic performance. While Bentworth Senior High School generally performs better than some of the lower-ranked nearby schools, it lags behind the higher-performing Peters Township High School and South Park Senior High School in terms of both academic achievement and school ranking.
