Last week, Hews Media Group-Cerritos News exclusively reported that embattled Rio Hondo College Superintendent Dr. Arturo Reyes had reached a settlement agreement for $642,000 with the college’s Board of Trustees.
In July of this year, HMG-CN was first to report how Reyes violated the Education Code, unilaterally lowering the annual workdays in his employment contract to 217 and giving himself the ability to take extra compensation for any days over 217, amounting to over $50,000.
Two days later the Whittier Daily News confirmed HMG-CN’s story and published their own.
Now, HMG-has obtained the settlement agreement between Rio Hondo College and Reyes.
