The Board is confident that she will continue our College’s efforts of diversity, equity and inclusion, which are fundamental to advancing educational justice and opportunity.”

Flores holds a master’s degree in education from the University of California, Los Angeles as well as a Bachelor of Arts in liberal studies and doctorate of philosophy in institutional leadership and policy studies from the University of California, Riverside.

“I am thrilled and excited to serve as the next Superintendent/President of Río Hondo College,” Flores said. “I firmly know that through the support of the Board of Trustees, the staff and administration, Río Hondo College will continue to thrive, excel and serve its community with excellence. I believe the work that I have done over the course of my career in community colleges has led me here to this College and this community. I could not be more excited to join you and serve our students.”
