“Mr. Nugent brings his broad academic and leadership experience to build on the progresses that have been made by Mr. McCabe and his Administrative team,” the district said in their announcement.

He will be arriving at Lassen in July and working with current Superintendent/Principal Bill McCabe to ensure a smooth transition.

Nugent is finishing the current school year as the principal of Osan American Middle High School in South Korea.

This school serves military families stationed overseas throughout Europe and the Pacific region. Nugent has served as a principal at the Marine Corps Air Station in Iwakuni, Japan, and as a principal at Osan Air Base in Songtan, South Korea.

According to the short bio released by the school Nugent grew up in Bridgeport, California where his family still resides.

ā€œIt has been an honor to serve the military members and their families overseas these last 10 years. However, I am very excited to be returning back to where my home has always been, the Eastern Sierras,ā€ said Nugent.

A former social studies teacher and coach who has taught in both California and Missouri.

The school’s press release describes Nugent as having a long history of working with staff, parents, students and community members in enhancing educational programs that ensure that students have the tools and resources to be college and career ready.

“He is looking forward to working closely with the Lassen community to maximize the opportunities for all of our students. Mr. Nugent believes that continuing to build a close partnership with Lassen Community College and a strong Career Technical Education program is critical for the success of our communities.”
