A Message from Our Principal

Dear NDES Community,

It is a huge honor to be the principal of North Decatur Elementary. I thoroughly enjoy collaborating and learning with our students, parents, and the families that make up our wonderful school community. I feel blessed to be a part of a faculty and staff committed to providing the best possible education for every child in a safe and nurturing environment.

North Decatur Elementary School is a community of learners with around 550 students, nearly 75 staff members,and 384 families. We believe all children can learn and deserve a successful school experience. We know that high expectations for student achievement combined with adequate support and intervention will result in academic proficiency and growth.

We are an ‘A’ school and have earned the “Four Star School” status this year. We are a 1:1 learning community with the use of iPads. Our PTO program is very involved with assisting our school to be successful and create strong lines of communication between home and school. As you look through our school website, you will find many creative and exciting examples of why we are successful.

Please feel free to reach out to me with your questions and concerns. My door is always open! 

Sincerely,

Rob Smith
