Manhattan PTA treasurer stole $185K from school fund: prosecutors

An Upper East Side PTA treasurer was indicted Tuesday for allegedly stealing $185,000 from his kid’s elementary school to help fund a lavish lifestyle that included trips to the Caribbean and high-end clothing.

Marc Haynes, 34, the former co-treasurer of the East Side Elementary School, PS 267 Parent Teacher Association, was charged in Manhattan Supreme Court with grand larceny for allegedly ripping off the organization by making unauthorized credit card payments from a PTA account, prosecutors said.

He allegedly made 17 illegal payments to his personal credit card from one account, including one for $185,717, during his one-year stint as a money manager in the 2020-2021 school year.
