Dear Bentworth Community,

Over the past few months, the Bentworth School District has been diligently developing a strategic plan through our comprehensive planning process, which occurs every three years. This initiative has culminated in the creation of a Future Ready Comprehensive Plan, designed to be a dynamic and guiding document for our district.

On June 12, 2025, a draft of the plan will be available for public review. You can access it on our District website or find printed copies at the District Administrative Office and in each school office. We invite you to engage in this 28-day public review and comment period. Paper copies of the proposed plan and public comment forms are available at each school and the District Administrative Offices from 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM.

We encourage you to share your thoughts and questions by emailing [email protected] by Monday, July 14, 2025.

The final version of the plan will be presented to the Board of School Directors for formal approval at the regular School Board Meeting on Monday, August 4, 2025, at 6:30 PM in the Bentworth School District High School.

We appreciate your involvement and encourage you to review the plan document linked below:
