The Role of a Fresno Unified Trustee:

A trustee’s role is to maintain a focus on student achievement, well- being and equity and to participate in making decisions that benefit the board’s entire jurisdiction while representing the interests of their constituents. Trustees must also communicate the views and decisions of the board back to their constituents.

In other words, you become the voice for our students, our teachers, and our community to create a greater public education system for all.
