"The city is about to pull the plug on a Brooklyn charter school that's rife with financial mismanagement, The Post has learned.
East New York Preparatory, which has booted low-performing students and shortened its year by a dozen days, would be only the fourth city charter school ever shuttered and the second to have its charter revoked by the chancellor, who authorized it to open in 2006.
The school, which yesterday received a 30-day notice of the city's intention to close it in June, was put on probation last February, after city officials caught wind of sky-high staff turnover and the dissolution of the school's board of directors.
In November, state Education Department inspectors documented a host of violations that led city officials to drop the hammer."
