The man who spearheaded Mayor Bloomberg’s controversial school closures and co-locations, Marc Sternberg, will be leaving the city to work at a foundation run by Walmrt heirs, the Walton Family Foundation.

Mayor Bloomberg called Sternberg “a spirited and devoted champion for school choice."

New Yorkers for Great Public Schools said Sternberg "was a key member of the Bloomberg education regime that has starved public schools of resources and established unfair competition between charters and public schools."

Mayoral frontrunner Bill de Blasio has called for a moratorium on Bloomberg’s unpopular school closings and co-locations.
