     This statement constitutes the initial group filing of
Schedule 13D for JKHY Partners, Michael E. Henry and  Vicki Jo Henry
with respect to the common stock, par value $.01 per share (the
"Common Stock"), of Jack Henry & Associates, Inc. (the "Company")
which maintains its principal executive offices at 663 Highway 60,
P.O. Box 807, Monett, Missouri 65708.  JKHY Partnership, Michael E.
Henry and Vicki Jo Henry have  previously filed their Schedule 13D
jointly with John W. Henry.  However, John W. Henry has transferred
his entire partnership interest in JHKY Partners to Michael E. Henry
and Vicki Jo Henry in equal amounts.  As a result, John W. Henry has
not retained any voting or beneficial interest in JKHY Partners and
will no longer be filing a joint Schedule 13D with JKHY Partnership,
Michael E. Henry and Vicki Jo Henry.

     ITEM 1.  SECURITY AND ISSUER.

     This Statement pertains to the Common Stock, par value $.01 per
share (the "Common Stock"), of Jack Henry & Associates, Inc. (the

     The Partnership was organized by the Henry family members

planning.  The Partnership's address is the same as the Company's.
Michael E. Henry and Vicki Jo Henry are the general partners of the

     Michael E. Henry and Vicki Jo Henry are United States citizens.
 During the last five years, neither the Partnership nor any of the

any violation with respect to such laws.

     ITEM 3.  SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.

     Not Applicable

     ITEM 4.  PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.

     On August 16, 2000, 3,300,000 shares of the common stock  of
Jack Henry & Associates, Inc. was sold in a registered public
offering at $43.00 per share.  In the offering 1,500,000 shares were
sold by Jack Henry & Associates, Inc. and 1,800,000 were sold by
selling stockholders.  JKHY partners sold 400,000 shares and
received $16,340,000.00 (after the underwriter's discount).

     Michael E. Henry, Vicki Jo Henry and JKHY Partners may acquire
or sell additional shares of Common Stock from time to time as
circumstances dictate.  Michael E. Henry currently serves as an
officer and director of the Company and, in such positions has the
power to influence the policies of the Company.  Michael E. Henry
intends to vote his Company stock, and the shares held by JKHY
Partners and other shares over which he has voting power, in favor
of the plans, transactions and matters which he supports.  In
addition, Mr. Henry, through his position and Company stockholdings,
may be deemed to exert a controlling influence over the Company.
However, other than as described herein, at the present time he has
not formulated any plans or proposals which relate to or would
result in any matter required to be disclosed in response to
paragraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

     ITEM 5.  INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

     On August 16, 2000, 3,300,000 shares of the common stock  of
Jack Henry & Associates, Inc. was sold in a registered public
offering at $43.00 per share.  In the offering 1,500,000 shares were
sold by Jack Henry & Associates, Inc. and 1,800,000 were sold by
selling stockholders.  JKHY partners sold 400,000 shares and
received $16,340,000.00 (after the underwriter's discount). JKHY
Partners may be obligated to sell an additional 60,000 shares of
common stock pursuant to an option granted to the underwriters to
cover over-allotments in the public offering, if any.  The option to
purchase over-allotments expires on September 10, 2000.

     As a result of the sale of 400,000 shares in the aforementioned
public offering,    JKHY Partnership now holds 2,845,000 shares of
Common Stock, representing 6.6% of the outstanding Company Common
Stock.  However, after giving effect to the shares of Common Stock
beneficially owned by its partners, the partnership may be deemed to
beneficially own a total of 5,578,824 shares, representing 12.8% of
the outstanding Company Common Stock.

     Michael E. Henry now beneficially owns a total of 5,578,824
shares of Common Stock, representing 12.8% of the outstanding Common
Stock, over which he has sole voting power.  Included in this amount
are 74,418 shares (less than 1%) owned individually, 32,356 shares
(less than 1%) allocated to Michael E. Henry's account under the
Company's ESOP, and 680,000 shares (1.6%) acquirable upon the
exercise of outstanding stock options.  He has the power to direct
the manner in which the trustee of the ESOP is to vote such shares
of Common Stock and, under certain circumstances, to direct the
trustee of the ESOP as to the disposition of such shares of Common
Stock.  Also included in the amount are 2,845,000 shares (6.6%) held
by the Partnership, 1,647,050 shares (3.8%) held in trust by Mr.
Henry's mother, Eddina F.Mackey  and 300,000 shares (less than 1%)
held by the Henry Family Limited Partnership.  Under the terms of
the Partnership Agreement, Mr. Henry as successor Managing Partner
has sole voting and dispositive power over the shares of Company
stock held by the Partnership.  With respect to the shares held by
the Trust, although he has been granted a proxy to vote such shares,
beneficial ownership of such shares is shared with Eddina F. Henry
since the Trust has retained dispositive power over the shares.
With respect to the shares held by the Henry Family Limited
Partnership, Michael E. Henry may be deemed to beneficially own such
shares because he has been granted a proxy to vote such shares.

     Vicki Jo Henry does not beneficially own any Common Stock in
her individual capacity.

     ITEM 6.  CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR
RELATIONSHIPS WITH RESPECT TO  SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

     As previously stated, JKHY Partners may be obligated to sell an
additional 75,000 shares of common stock pursuant to an option
granted to the underwriters to cover over-allotments in the public
offering, if any.  The option to purchase over-allotments expires on
September 10, 2000.
