Hello! I’m Angela McPhee and I have had the privilege of being part of the Ogden Preparatory Academy family since it first opened its doors back in 2003! I’ve taught fourth grade for one year, third grade for twelve years, and second grade for four years. This will be my second year as a school leader and I look forward to being a Principal alongside Mr. Kennington.

After nine years of teaching at OPA, I moved on to become a teaching specialist at a nearby district and spent three years as an assistant principal within that district. In 2021, I made the decision to return to OPA as an administrator, and I’ve been so pleased with that decision.
