New York, February 28: A Spanish teacher at Riverbank High School was arrested Tuesday, February 25, on charges of unlawful sex with a 17-year-old student, the Stanislaus County Sheriffâs Office said. The accused teacher, Dulce Flores (33), who taught at the school since 2016, is accused of engaging in a sexual relationship with the student during 2023. The arrest followed a tip received by school officials, prompting an investigation.
