The 15314 zip code area is home to three schools in the Bentworth School District: Bentworth Elementary Center, Bentworth Senior High School, and Bentworth Middle School.

Among the standout schools, Bentworth Elementary Center stands out with consistently high performance on PSSA tests, outperforming district and state averages in most subject areas.

Bentworth Senior High School also impresses with a strong graduation rate of 87.5% and a low dropout rate of 1.6%, along with solid performance on Keystone Exams and a low student-teacher ratio of 6.3.
However, Bentworth Middle School struggles with PSSA Math scores, with only 23.2% proficiency compared to the district and state averages of 32.9% and 40.4%, respectively. Additionally, all three schools have high free/reduced lunch rates, ranging from 74.42% to 100%, indicating a significant level of economic disadvantage in the community. The variation in spending per student and student-teacher ratios across the schools suggests potential differences in resource allocation within the district, which may be an area for further investigation.
