- school was stronger when Dr. Clarke was there--McGhee is going to have to work harder to maintain the integrity of the school.

(Rating: 5 / 5) Report As Inappropriate - McGee is a great principal he knows exactly what the school and the students want and need. I think he's a great asset to the school and is exactly what we need. He knows when to be strictly business and when to have fun. He connects with the students very well and as if they were his own kids, he treats them as individuals not just as a whole and we really appreciate all of his concern for us. The school is great, all though the parking lot could be bigger.
