Mrs. Deb Reese
My Name is Mrs. Deb Reese and I teach PE and Health Class. This is my 9th year here; in total I have 13 years of experience. Teaching is my passion; I have always loved working with children. I taught at the elementary level for 5 years before coming to McGee's. My philosophy includes teaching students various skills and strategies to become healthy and active throughout their lives, providing an effective learning environment to make it enjoyable, and to promote the mastery of physical, emotional, and social skills that relate to their lives.

Updated COVID-19 Quarantine Guidance
There have been significant changes to the Strong Schools NC toolkit that affects the quarantine procedures our staff and students must follow if they are exposed to a positive case of COVID-19. Any student or staff member who is currently quarantined due to an exposure of a positive COVID-19 case may return to school or work tomorrow, unless the close contact is a housemate. We are able to make this adjustment because our district requires masks for all students, staff, and guests.
