Education officials announce 2 Brooklyn charter school closures
Education officials announced Thursday that two Brooklyn charter schools they say are not meeting performance standards are to be closed in June.
The two are the Ethical Community Charter School in Williamsburg and the Fahari Academy Charter School in Flatbush.
In the past two years, the city Department of Education gave the schools short-term renewals — two years and one, respectively. The schools were told that if they didn’t meet academic conditions, their charters would not be renewed.
