He’s the only candidate I trust to continue the reform efforts in our schools. I fully support Edwin Flores for District 1 DISD Trustee.”

Local education leader Louisa Meyer said, “Edwin understands the needs of our community and has always been accessible. We need a trustee who is connected to our community. Edwin is that leader.”
