Administration

Mr. Jeff Matthews

I am delighted to serve the Wagener-Salley community as Principal of the Busbee Bulldogs! I have served as an educator for 23 years, working in elementary, middle, and high schools in West Virginia and South Carolina.

I recognize that we have many things to work on here at Busbee, and our students, teachers, and staff are some of the best and brightest in the district. I know we will make great strides this year. I am also excited about partnering with A.L. Corbett Middle, Wagener-Salley High, and other community partners to strengthen our school and grow our students.

Please do not hesitate to reach out to me if you have any questions or concerns. Go Bulldogs!

Mrs. Breanne Creswell

I am excited to introduce myself as an Assistant Principal at Busbee Elementary. With 24 years of experience in education, I have served students, teachers, and families across elementary and middle schools in Barnwell and Aiken Counties. I have also served as a Transformation Coach with the South Carolina Department of Education, partnering with schools to strengthen instruction, improve student achievement, and foster positive school cultures.

My educational philosophy is rooted in the belief that all students can learn. As educators, we have an enormous responsibility to help every child discover the path that best meets their individual needs, providing the support, encouragement, and opportunities necessary for each student to reach their full potential.

I am passionate about building meaningful relationships with students, families, staff, and the community. I look forward to partnering with the families and the community to support student success while building upon the strong traditions, culture, and sense of belonging that already make Busbee Elementary such a special place.

Outside of school, I enjoy traveling, spending quality time with her husband, children, and granddaughter, cheering on my Clemson Tigers and creating lasting memories with family and friends. I am honored to join the Busbee family and am excited to begin this new chapter of serving the students and community of Wagener. Go Bulldogs!
