Every student should have access to strong instruction and meaningful academic choices. Deepti supports retaining and recruiting excellent teachers, expanding academic programs, and increasing access to rigorous coursework across NHUSD.

Deepti manages multimillion-dollar budgets and complex programs in her professional work. On the School Board, she would focus on protecting classroom priorities, maintaining responsible reserves, and making major spending decisions easier for the public to understand. She also supports a public, project-by-project Measure N dashboard showing approved projects, spending, and progress.

Deepti believes strong public schools support students, strengthen neighborhoods, and help protect long-term property values. She will focus on the fundamentals that make schools work well: strong teachers, manageable class sizes, reliable campus resources, and consistent support across NHUSD schools.

Families and taxpayers should not have to dig for basic district information. Deepti will work to publish an annual class-size report by school, grade, and subject where applicable, and make district spending and major financial decisions easier to understand.

As a mom of two daughters, Deepti knows how much campus safety matters to families. Parents should be able to send their kids to school with peace of mind, and students, teachers, and staff should feel secure on campus. On the School Board, Deepti will follow through on the safety and communication systems the district has already funded, making sure they work as intended and strengthen safety across our schools.
