Welcome to Bache-Martin Elementary School! In this website is all of the information you will need to get to know Bache-Martin and all that makes this a special place to learn. If I were to sum it up:

Bache-Martin is a community. There is no one person or group who can take credit for the success of our school. The staff at Bache-Martin is energetic, hard-working and creative. They work together as a team and are constantly sharing and learning. Parents are actively involved and can be seen on the yard, in the classrooms, in the library and in the office. They stand behind all that we do and their support is invaluable. The district provides opportunities for staff development and support. Everyone works together in the best interest of the children and this spirit can be seen throughout the school.

Bache-Martin is a great place to learn. The teachers spend a great deal of time getting to know each child to better meet their social and academic needs. Evidence of student work can be seen throughout the hallways and classrooms. Credentialed specialists teach the children music, art, physical education and library. With the Pennsylvania Standards and our District Core Curriculum as our guide, we provide an education based on high expectations for all children.
