Parents, August 8th is almost here, and it’s hard to believe that the beginning of school is just around the corner.  I am sure that both students and parents are becoming excited and anxious about the opening of school as they begin shopping for those classroom supplies, new clothes, backpacks, and lunchboxes. I know I am just as excited to be starting my 15th year as the principal of Morgantown Elementary as I was starting my first year.
 

Welcome! My name is Jeff Jennings and I am the principal at North Butler Elementary School.   I want to welcome each and everyone to NBES and it is my hope that everyone has a great year!
