Karla Herrera Lovos

Hello Scholars!

My name is Karla Herrera Lovos, and I am very excited to start working with all our middle school students, staff, and Ollin families this 2026-2027 school year.  I look forward to getting to know you all and making wonderful memories and relationships.  I also feel ecstatic to work with our middle school staff and administrative team.

This will be my eleventh year as the Expanded Learning Afterschool Program Site Director, and I have had the opportunity to work with students in grades 6- 9. It is with immense pleasure to serve our Huntington Park community, motivate, prepare our scholars academically and socially-emotionally, and work with our families to ensure a successful year. Additionally, I am delighted to support our middle school students with literacy interaction during the afterschool program, hoping to instill a passion for reading books.  

I am proud to be Latina and embrace my Salvadorian and American culture. I grew up in Huntington Park and was the first to attend a university and graduate. I earned my degree from the University of Irvine with a bachelor’s degree in Social Science and a minor in education. I attended Cerritos College to earn Early Childhood Development units and earned a Master’s in School Counseling from the University of La Verne. A little about myself: I enjoy taking pictures, creating family albums, watching 80’s movies, spending time with family and friends, travelling, being around nature, walking, swimming, dancing, drawing, eating delicious desserts, and listening to music (favorite genres: Spanish music, 80’s, soft rock, and R & B).  What I am most grateful for in my life is my immediate family, friends, loving husband, and my son, Samuel.

If you need to contact me, please call the school (323) 277-2901 or email me at Karla.HerreraLovos@aspirepublicschools.org.
