About Ann Marie McGhee
Every now and then, someone enters the world and leaves it brighter. Ann Marie McGhee was one of those rare souls. A passionate educator, loving friend, and tireless advocate for every child, Mrs. McGhee had a gift for making everyone feel seen, supported, and celebrated.

Her classroom was a place of acceptance, curiosity, and growth. She didn’t just teach—she inspired. Her impact lives on in the lives of her students, colleagues, and the community she served so faithfully at Horse Creek Academy.

Ann Marie was:

  • A natural problem solver and lifelong learner
  • Deeply committed to education
  • Proud of her school and her students
  • A woman of warmth, wisdom, and heart
