Mrs. Bell is a great leader, but most importantly, a great person. As a former student, I do not doubt her integrity, love, and passion for everything she does. She will always go above and beyond to help anyone succeed in life. Her humbleness, compassion, and professionalism will always stand out above all, and she will always bring out the best in anyone.
- Hector Lara, Former Student
We’ve been benefactors of Jenny bringing real togetherness to our neighborhood — things feel different (and better) because of her. She grew up here, attended McGavock, and it shows in her deep care for Donelson. She brings people together, solves problems with a fresh perspective, and has a vision for our schools that’s genuinely exciting. We’re proud to support her for the school board.
- Aaron & Bethany Parker, Donelson Residents & Community Leaders
I’m proud to support Jenny Bell in her campaign for School Board Member. As a former classmate and colleague, I’ve seen firsthand the dedication, integrity, and heart she brings to everything she does for her school community. Mrs. Bell has always been someone who listens deeply, collaborates thoughtfully, and works tirelessly to create opportunities for others.
- Dr. Nae’Shara Neal, Parent & MNPS Leader
Each student deserves a personalized, high-quality learning experience, backed by families and community, to best prepare them to thrive in life and career.
