After the first season, Herrera was unceremoniously written out from working on Zoey 101 because the producers thought she looked too old next to her co-stars, though it was never confirmed by Nickelodeon. She was replaced by the character Lola Martinez (Victoria Justice). She also co-starred in feature film Freedom Writers opposite Hilary Swank. In 2008, Herrera had quit acting.
