Over the last 32 years, Area 3 Trustee Cindy Watter has given back to the NVUSD community in myriad ways. A northern California native, Trustee Watter taught English at Napa High and English and Social Studies at American Canyon Middle School, retiring from the District in 2015. As a third-generation teacher, Trustee Watter feels her “kindergarten-graduate school public education opened the world to her and her family and is proud to support education by serving as a public school board member.” She is a graduate of the University of California, Berkeley with a bachelor's degree in Comparative Literature and earned her teaching credential from San Francisco State University. In addition to serving on the NVUSD Board of Education, she is active with the UC Master Gardeners of Napa County (president emerita) and the Lewis Carroll Society of North America. She is also the proud parent to two Napa High School graduates and enjoys reading, gardening, cooking, sewing, and traveling.
