State education officials are seeking to pull the charters from two Brooklyn high schools that are overseen by a renegade charter-management group.

The move to potentially close Believe Northside and Believe Southside charter high schools in June comes a day after the city announced plans to revoke the charter of a third school also under the Believe High Schools Network: the Williamsburg Charter HS.

State Attorney General Eric Schneiderman is probing the financial management of the network, the schools and network director Eddie Calderon-Melendez, said sources familiar with the investigation.

“They need to act more quickly and they don’t,” said New York Charter Parent Association President Mona Davids.
