Bentworth Elementary Center stands out with its relatively high PSSA test scores, particularly in 3rd grade ELA and 4th grade Science. However, the school also has an extremely high percentage of free/reduced lunch recipients at 99.21%, indicating a predominantly economically disadvantaged student population.

At the high school level, Bentworth Senior High School stands out with a solid 4-year graduation rate of 93.9% and relatively strong Keystone Exam performance, particularly in Literature and Biology. However, the school's overall performance has declined over the years, dropping from a 4-star to a 3-star rating on the SchoolDigger rankings.
