Helen Quan
Candidate For Richmond School Trustee
Richmond has been my home for over 33 years, and it’s where my two children grew up and graduated from our public schools. I’m running for School Trustee because every child deserves the chance to succeed, every family deserves to be heard, and every school deserves strong community support. I’d be honoured to earn your vote. Students first. Safe schools. Transparent leadership.

Why I'm Running
People often ask me, "Helen, you're ready to retire—why are you running for School Trustee?"
Because I believe every child deserves the very best education.
More than 33 years ago, my family and I made Richmond our home. Both of my sons graduated from Richmond public schools. As a parent, I understand what families value most: safe schools, quality education, and opportunities for every child to succeed.
For over 30 years, I have proudly served students, families, newcomers, seniors, and our multicultural community. I am now seeking the opportunity to bring that experience to the Richmond Board of Education and continue advocating for students and families.
