Superintendent of Schools, Belmont-Redwood Shores School District; San Francisco area

Along the Peninsula, just south of San Francisco, the City of Belmont and the bayside community of Redwood Shores in Redwood City have come together to create one of California’s great elementary school districts. Residents enjoy miles of scenic walking and cycling trails along the Bay, beautiful open spaces surrounding Waterdog Lake, welcoming neighborhoods, and convenient access to the cultural, recreational, and professional opportunities that make the Peninsula such an extraordinary place to live.

Though distinct in character, Belmont and Redwood Shores are united by a shared belief that outstanding public schools help build extraordinary communities. Those same values are reflected throughout the Belmont-Redwood Shores School District.

The Belmont-Redwood Shores School District reflects the very best of the communities it serves. Students are challenged to achieve at the highest levels while learning in schools where they are known, supported, and encouraged to discover their individual strengths. Exceptional educators, engaged families, and an unwavering commitment to the whole child have helped establish BRSSD as one of California’s premier elementary school districts.

Constituents routinely describe a district where dedicated teachers build lasting relationships with students, where diversity and inclusion are celebrated as strengths, and where every learner benefits from rich opportunities in academics, the arts, music, robotics, theater, athletics, and social-emotional learning. Families value the district’s welcoming culture, strong sense of community, and meaningful partnerships with local organizations and the extraordinary School Force Education Foundation —all working together to provide every student with an exceptional educational experience.

The next Superintendent will have the privilege of leading a district with extraordinary strengths and a community that believes deeply in public education. This is an opportunity to build upon a legacy of excellence while helping shape the next chapter of a school district committed to continuous improvement, meaningful relationships, and the success of every learner.
