A celebrated teacher at a Manhattan charter school was arrested for allegedly grooming and sexually assaulting a fourth-grade student for several years. Parents were informed on Thursday that Sanchez had been fired as well as the principal, for his handling of the case.
The principal was terminated soon after Sanchez’s arrest for failing ‘to follow KIPP NYC’s procedures or meet KIPP NYC’s expectations in how he handled this matter,’ said superintendent Jim Manly.
