District Selects New High School Principal
An assistant principal at Pacifica High School has been named principal of Oxnard High School.
James Edwards, 52, will replace Jim Nielsen, who left Sept. 28 to take a job as director of secondary education in the Las Virgenes Unified School District.
The Oxnard Union High School District Board of Trustees appointed Edwards to the post this week, after a selection committee interviewed eight applicants. Edwards, who has been with the Oxnard district since 1987, was the committee’s top choice.
He starts his new job Monday.
