MVUSD Trustee Area 2
Every student.
Every success.
Every time.
Courtney Thouvenell is a mom and 19-year Murrieta resident running for Murrieta Valley Unified School District's Board of Education — to put families first and earn back your trust.
A neighbor first. A parent always.
Strong schools, safe communities. United in the mission to empower every child.
— Courtney Thouvenell
Courtney has called Murrieta home for nineteen years — raising her own kids in the same neighborhoods, parks, and classrooms that make up Trustee Area 2. She's watched this community grow, and she's watched MVUSD families ask for the same things again and again: transparency, accountability, and a board that listens before it votes.
That's why she's running. Not as a career politician, but as a mom who shows up — to back-to-school nights, to booster fundraisers, to the district meetings most people don't have time to attend. Courtney believes every family deserves a trustee who does the homework, answers the phone, and puts kids ahead of politics.
- 19-year resident of Murrieta, raising her family in Trustee Area 2
- Longtime volunteer across MVUSD school communities
- Running to restore transparency and trust on the board
Three commitments, on the record.
Courtney's platform is built around what MVUSD families have told her matters most — not slogans, but the day-to-day work of a trustee.
Every student. Every success. Every time.
No student should fall through the cracks. Courtney will push for consistent academic support, real accountability for outcomes, and a board that measures success by every child — not just the average.
Building stronger schools, together
Great schools are built with parents and teachers, not around them. Courtney will open the doors of the board room, invite real community input, and rebuild the partnership between families and the district.
Putting families first, earning your trust
Trust is earned with transparency — clear budgets, open meetings, and a trustee who explains her votes. Courtney will make family input a standing part of every major decision.
