Ruthie Quinto (Ruth Quinto)[1](born September 3, 1968) is the Deputy Superintendent and CFO of Fresno Unified School District.[2][3] Quinto previously served as the City Controller[4] for the City of Fresno, California.


Early life and education

Quinto was born[5] and raised in Fresno, California. She graduated from San Joaquin Memorial High School in 1986[6] and lived in Fresno until graduating from California State University, Fresno in 1990[7]. She worked most of her career in public accounting in for a Certified Public Accounting firm in southern California, McGladrey & Pullen, LLP, now RSM US, LLP.

Quinto holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration from California State University, Fresno and obtained her CPA license from the California State Board of Accountancy in 1994.[8] Her husband, Frank, and she have three children, Rebecca, Jacob and Nicolas.

Early career

In 2005, she became the CFO for Fresno Unified School District.[9][10]

Tenure

In 2004, the Fresno Unified School District was on the verge of state takeover[11] due to poor performance academically and extreme financial difficulties.[12] That year, community leaders and a volunteer interim superintendent, urged a turnaround plan entitled Choosing Our Future: A Community-Wide Call to Action published in 2005.[13] From 2005 to 2016, Fresno Unified has been referenced as a transitioned system, once nearly dysfunctional to more coherent. Results show that Fresno is fiscally stable[14][15] and has a high graduation rate.[16]

Other

Quinto serves on the Board of Trustees for the Community Regional Medical Centers.[17]
