Melissa Serrano is a faculty member of Child Development Family Studies at City College of San Francisco & Administrative Support/Recruiter Felton Institute Child Youth and Families Division. She is a homegrown product of San Francisco’s public school district where she educated her own children with much better results, which she credits to being an active participant in their education. An educator and long term child care provider, Melissa is passionate about student and family advocacy, and believes that positive outcomes can be achieved when families and school communities collaborate to help students/youth to reach their full potential. 

Melissa received an AA in Child Development Administration City College of San Francisco; BA in Child and Adolescent Development San Francisco State University and an MA in Organizational Leadership University of San Francisco. She is a proud mother of three highly educated Latina daughters that chose careers as educators, giving back to communities of color.
