  I endorse Stephanie Lopez for the Rialto School Board. I have known Mrs. Lopez for several years. As a mom with children in RUSD schools, she has actively been involved in school committees and activities. She uses her voice to advocate for children. She will represent your child's best interest with heart and responsibility. Her desire is to see improvement in student safety and supports. With these goals, teachers will automatically be supported too. This is a win-win.

  I have known Stephanie Lopez for 14 years. I met her when I had her daughter in my TK class. As a retired Rialto teacher after 33 years, I have been around many parents. Ms. Lopez will always be a parent to remember. She was always very supportive and involved in our classroom. If I ever needed anything, she was the parent I asked. Even when her child wasn’t in my class, I could still count on her. Throughout the years, she has continued to be involved. Ms. Lopez has been involved in many capacities at the Dollahan. She has served as School Site Council President at Dollahan, was on the PTA, PBIS team, Safety Committee, and a parent volunteer. Now at Warner, she is on SSC, PBIS, as well as on the SEPAC Board. She has been to many district board meetings to voice her concerns. Stephanie stands for the students, teachers and schools! For these reasons I endorse Stephanie Lopez for Rialto School Board member. Sincerely , Yvette M. Valencia Retired Rialto teacher.

  Every child in Rialto deserves to be safe, heard, and supported at school. Stephanie is the candidate who will fight for that.

  When my special education child was failed at Rialto Middle School, Stephanie didn't look away. She stood before the school board and shared our story, along with the stories of many other students and families who have faced painful, unacceptable experiences. She gave voice to parents who had been ignored and children who couldn't speak for themselves.

  That is the kind of leadership our district needs: someone who listens, speaks up, and acts, especially for our most vulnerable students.

  Stephanie is a tireless advocate for all of Rialto's children, and she will make sure special education families are no longer overlooked.

I am confident that Stephanie would be an excellent candidate to represent our children in the Rialto Unified School District, especially children with additional needs. She believes strongly in inclusion and makes sure that every child feels seen, supported, and included. Stephanie is always there when families need support. She continually looks for new resources, information, and opportunities to help our children succeed. Most importantly, she has firsthand experience navigating the challenges that families of children with additional needs face. She understands how difficult these situations can be and brings compassion, understanding, and a strong voice for our children and their families. I truly believe Stephanie would be a wonderful advocate and representative for our community. She cares deeply about our children, listens to families, and is willing to go the extra mile to make sure every child has the support and opportunities they deserve.

  Stephanie Lopez is an incredible mother, advocate, leader, and friend. Since my daughter Paula entered Dollahan Elementary, Stephanie has taught me what it truly means to advocate for my child. She has guided and encouraged me through difficult days and moments of uncertainty, always offering support, advice, and the tough words I sometimes needed to hear. Her dedication to Tristan and the special education community is inspiring. She is a true leader and a wonderful example of parent advocacy within the Rialto Unified School District.
