Carrie Du Bois has served as a school board trustee since 2005, when she was elected to the San Carlos Elementary School District board. In 2011, she ran for and won a seat on the Sequoia Union High School District board to advocate for high-risk youth, blend communities and continue her work to improve outcomes for ALL students.

Her passion for education issues comes from 12 years of advocacy for foster youth, her two decades of involvement with the Rosalie Rendu Center of East Palo Alto, and many other community projects related to children and youth. More recently, Carrie has helped to stimulate community conversations about mental health and trauma that affect student learning.

She serves as a delegate to the California School Boards Association (CSBA) and is a past president of the San Mateo County School Boards Association. She believes her work for county and state associations allows for her own continuous learning about the complex issues related to public education. Carrie is proud of her work chairing major educational conferences on topics such as mental health, social-emotional learning and vulnerable children. She was also honored to chair the CSBA Annual Education Conference in 2017, which brought together 6,000 educational leaders statewide.

Carrie was the San Carlos Citizen of the year in 2005 for her community work and fundraising efforts for public schools. She is real estate agent in San Carlos and the mother of three boys who all attended public schools. Her youngest son is a freshman at Carlmont High School.
