Mike Feinberg, who was fired from the KIPP charter network he co-founded in the wake of allegations of sexual harassment and abuse, continues to work in the charter school sphere, both nationally and in Houston.

Great lesson on the need for great educators for our children.

Since the KIPP charter chain is privately controlled, they have a
