Gabriel Mitey, 28, who was booted from one NYC school for flirting with students and posting a nearly nude photo, is back in a classroom under a new name.
A teacher booted from one city high school for flirting with students and posting a nearly nude photo of himself on Snapchat is back in the classroom at an elite Manhattan school under a different last name – with the apparent blessing of the city Department of Education, The Post has learned.
A PPAS mom who had another child at LOMA last year first recognized the teacher as Mitey, insiders say. Word soon spread among students, who shared aTo those who asked, a guidance counselor and Principal Kevin Ryan conceded that “Torres” is Mitey, parents said. Ryan insisted to parents the DOE did not inform him that Torres was actually Mitey, or divulge the teacher’s troubled history, until he asked higher-ups. “He feels the DOE played him,” said a father who learned of the subterfuge.“I believe in second chances, but not when it comes to kids. I don’t want to risk my daughter in that type of situation,” said the dad, asking to remain anonymous to protect his child.
