The Reed-Union School District has educated generations of students on our peninsula with the highest standards of excellence and respect for our teachers and taxpayers. Today, our district faces important challenges—which demand responsible and independent leadership from your RUSD Board of Trustees.

My name is Shelby Pasarell Tsai, and I will take on these challenges as your Trustee. I grew up in California and Puerto Rico and graduated from the public schools in Napa County.

My family and I are long-time residents of Tiburon. My children have thrived as RUSD students, and I will work every day to make sure that every RUSD student receives our State’s best education.
