Chris Whittle may have fled to China.

He started or joined a new endeavor! It's a gap year situation called Baret Scholars: https://www.baretscholars.org/

As soon as I saw the marketing materials I knew it was a Whittle product. Check out that pricing!! 😱😱

Yep. Even the exact same font as the Whittle PR. Incredible.

The Whittle Chapter was a gigantic stain on DC, on former DC Attorney General Karl Racine's absolute and corrupt refusal to go after one of the biggest frauds to hit DC with over $100 million in fraudulent contracts , on the Washington Post's Nick Anderson's naive poorly reported puff piece on the school while it was on fire with legal trouble, Board chaos, investor lawsuits and teachers being paid with parents' Venmo accounts----------not to mention the sheer audacity of the new head, serial liar and spin master Manuel Rivera  trying to claim high ground with a lawsuit of his own after imploring parents to prepay next years' tuition into a black hole of false promises. This was concurrent to the odd, inappropriate former head of school's wife's ( Maret parents take note) active self-appointed leadership in private confidential Board financial matters WHILE her husband pitched himself for a new job with Maret claiming he knew the space well given his experience at what was to be a competitor. It was clowns to the left and clowns to the right at first glance --but look closer at the NY lawsuits and you will find a trail of hundreds of millions of losses much of which were skimmed right into Chris Whittle's next Cyprus ponzi scheme..or this new..gap year bs. The institutions that should never have let this happen failed its constituents. The folks in the c suite ( inept division heads, revolving board investors, ignorant parents council that fawned over Whittle's "vision" and were conned, etc) perpetuated it. Chris Whittle should be in jail like any other thief. His cronies love to say they didn't know..but everyone on the inside knew and kept lying to anyone that would listen, while collecting paychecks til they bounced.

I drive by the big vacant former Whittle School building regularly and keep wondering what is to come for that property. Who now owns it?

If this is intended to help kids get into college by signalling that their parents are rich and gullible, I think it will succeed.

Former whittle student here, I am DISGUSTED to say the least. I mean the audacity of this man. While we were scrambling for schools at the very last minute, teachers were going on weeks without pay, this man was off somewhere in the islands with no remorse. I see he’s scrubbed his name off the internet and removed some of the critical articles. I hope he returned the last minute “loan” money to keep the school open as he wanted it wired to some offshore island. It’s so funny the company’s CFO is a ‘22 undergrad graduate, seems like this is his first job. So many red flags, hopefully people won’t fall for this. On another note, I wonder who does the designs and marketing, it has similar fonts and designs Whittle and Avenues?? Well at least if someone wants to serve him the world knows he lives in CT.

Because his target audience loves “innovation” and “disruption” so they’re easy marks.

Fortunately for the new head of one of Washington's local private schools (who has past connections to Whittle ), Chris Whittle didn't name his new venture "Maret Scholars"

Just a more "globally oriented" scammer than "Teflon Don." In certain ways, they're peas in a pod.
