April K. Ybarra
Board of Education Member, Area 4

Hello! My name is April Ybarra. I was born in Sacramento and attended five schools within the Sacramento City Unified School District during my upbringing. My high school education was in El Paso, TX. As a mom of two daughters—one currently a student and the other a former student in Sac City—I bring a unique perspective on the challenges that families encounter. This personal experience drives my advocacy for policies that prioritize student success and promote family engagement.

Chinua Rhodes
2nd Vice President, Board of Education, Area 5

Hi, I’m Chinua Rhodes. I’m a Father of 5, a Community Organizer, and your Trustee. I grew up right here in South Sacramento, and I’m a product of Sac City Schools. While in high school, my father, who organized for Pico California, showed me that collective effort for change is possible and that everyday working people are the key to the city’s success and well-being. These lessons led me to coordinate programs and grants supporting thousands of Sacramento youth and families and organizing around housing and youth justice initiatives.
