Kanye West is once again in the headlines for all the wrong reasons. The American celebrity is being sued by two former teachers, Cecilia Hailey and her daughter Chekarey Byers, who were fired from West’s privately run school, Donda Academy. The lawsuit was filed in the Los Angeles County Superior Court on Thursday, with the women alleging that the school violated several Department of Education requirements and did not adhere to state regulations.
The school of Kanye West lacked services
According to the former teachers, the school employed teachers who were not adequately trained in Basic Life Support skills, resulting in a significant safety issue related to students, leading to frequent occurrences of bullying. In addition, the school reportedly lacked the services of a school nurse and janitorial staff. Moreover, they alleged that Donda Academy did not adhere to nutritional guidelines for its students’ meals.
The Woman are seeking $1 million
Hailey and Byers claim that they brought the loopholes and violations to the attention of the director/principal of Donda Academy, Moira Love, on at least three separate occasions, but were fired as a result of their complaints. They have also alleged that they were racially discriminated against and had their wages withheld on several occasions. The women are seeking more than $1 million in damages for lost wages and emotional distress, according to ABC 7.
The lawsuit further alleges that throughout the entirety of the plaintiffs’ employment, the only lunch available for students was sushi, every single day, with no outside food or anything other than water allowed. It was widely known that West spends $10,000 a week on sushi. The allegations are serious and will require a thorough investigation to determine the truth.
