A Chicago Public Schools teacher continued to sexually abuse children for months after he was removed from a Northwest Side elementary school during an investigation, a lawsuit says.
CPS alerted parents in May 2021 that they had removed Andrew Castro from Federico Garcia Lorca Elementary after an allegation of sex abuse. But the school’s letter didn’t name him, so parents of three abused children were unaware that Castro, who had befriended the families, was a threat, lawyers say.
