He has worked with the administrative team at Mater Dei, becoming assistant headmaster in 2015, but he has still been able to continue teaching, coaching, and advising the 8th graders as they prepare to enter high school. He has enjoyed increasing his knowledge of “Ed tech” and working with his SSAT and HSPT students.

We signed my 8th grade son up for the HSPT class based on a recommendation from a local teacher and we could not be more happy with how well this class prepared him! Mr. Dugan provided structure and quality content that made this process so much less stressful for my son (and me). I would recommend any parents who are looking to prepare their children for testing to check out Mr. Dugan! He is truly great!

I would highly recommend Mr. Dugan’s prep classes which have been amazing for my son. He took the HSPT and the SSAT courses and I have no doubt his scores will be higher as a result. I had heard over the years that the best teacher in the area to prepare kids for the test is Mr. Dugan. Now I can say from experience that’s definitely true! He is dedicated, committed and flexible. He gives the kids advice and guidance and helps them feel confident as they approach the test. He’s a great resource for parents as well as we navigate this process. So glad we signed up for this.

My son has enjoyed Mr. Dugan's HSPT Prep class and feels much more prepared for the test. Going through the lessons and reviewing the answers has been very informative. He has shared a lot of tips on what to look for with each question to narrow down the correct answer. My son has found the practice tests and reviews very useful. He is a great teacher, easy to listen to over Zoom and he has a wealth of knowledge about the test. We are so happy we found him and his service!!
