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[edit]

Quinto was born[1] and raised in Fresno, California. Quinto graduated from San Joaquin Memorial High School in 1986[5] and lived in Fresno until graduating from California State University, Fresno in 1990.[6] Quinto 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.[7] Quinto and her husband, Frank, have three children: Rebecca, Jacob and Nicolas.

Early career[edit]

In 2001, Quinto became the city controller[4] for the City of Fresno, California.

In 2005, Quinto became the CFO for Fresno Unified School District.[8][9]

Tenure[edit]

In 2004, the Fresno Unified School District was on the verge of state takeover[10] due to poor performance academically and extreme financial difficulties.[11] 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.[12] 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[13] [14] and has a high graduation rate.[15]

Other[edit]

Quinto serves on the board of trustees for the Community Regional Medical Centers.[16]
