, IDEA Public Schools signed a $15 million lease for a luxury jet in 2019, purchased luxury boxes at San Antonio Spurs games, paid for lavish travel expenditures for executives, acquired a boutique hotel in Cameron County for more than $1 million, and faces other allegations of irresponsible or improper use of funds.On ExpressNews.
And then there is the too-sweet deal struck by Fernando Donatti, the Houston superintendent and founder of Diversity, Roots and Wings Academy.
