Student Safety & School Culture
True safety means every student feels emotionally secure, included, and like they truly belong — through SEL, trust-building, and robust mental health resources.
Catalina Rupert is running for SUSD School Board to champion a school system where every child thrives, every teacher is supported, and every family feels heard.
True safety means every student feels emotionally secure, included, and like they truly belong — through SEL, trust-building, and robust mental health resources.
Every decision should be centered on the needs and voices of students, families, and teachers. Catalina champions open communication, student empowerment, and respect for educators as valued professionals and partners in education.
Every child deserves a path that fits their unique future — through the arts, music, sports, hands-on technology, and honoring students' home languages and cultural backgrounds as academic assets.
Catalina doesn't just talk about our schools — she shows up. She's at every meeting, every event, listening and learning. That's the kind of leader our kids deserve.
Catalina Rupert has spent the last decade as a parent, educator advocate, and community organizer in our district. She knows our schools from the inside — the challenges teachers face, the gaps families fall through, and the incredible potential waiting to be unlocked. She's running because she believes every child deserves a champion.
Together, we can build schools our whole community is proud of.
