PERFORMANCE STANDARDS

            The Pennsylvania School Code requires all school districts that have hired superintendents on/after the fall of 2012 are required to develop objective performance standards and post them on the district’s website. The superintendent must be evaluated annually, and the objective performance standards must be mutually agreed upon by both the board and the superintendent.

At the conclusion of the evaluation cycle, the board must publish a statement on the district’s website as to whether the superintendent met (or did not meet) the objective performance standards. 

Mr. Martin, Bentworth School District Superintendent, was assessed by the Bentworth School Board and has satisfactorily met the following performance standards for the 2022-2023 school year:

• The superintendent uses multiple data sources to assess student success and growth as appropriate, specific to needs within the District. 

2. CULTURE OF LEARNING

• The Superintendent, as educational leader, establishes a system of keeping staff informed, recognizes staff members for their contributions and creates professional development opportunities for them to improve and gain new skills. 
• He fosters a positive learning environment through the active visitation to buildings and classrooms to build relationships with students and staff.

3. FAMILY AND COMMUNITY RELATIONS

• The superintendent, as educational leader, projects a positive image, seeks multiple avenues of communications and works to provide means and methods to communicate with the district.

4. PERSONAL QUALITIES AND PROFESSIONALISM

• The superintendent strives to model professional standards and values of Pennsylvania’s public education system and works toward win-win solutions. Additionally he works to individually reflect upon his role through the use of professional development, literature and activities.
